Support Vector Machines

Statistical learning algorithms offer a compromise between accuracy and lower computing capacity than the greedy pattern search methods. In the area of supervised machine learning a particularly interesting technique is “Support Vector Machines,” which provides a straightforward classification method trained on a given data set. The method already has many applications in the financial industry mainly linked to credit risk rating, solvency assessment, sentiment analysis, and market time series forecasting.
