The Kernel Trick is different from
Kernel
lol. The strategy is to embed the data into a space where the patterns can be discovered as linear relations.
  1. Kernel function that maps the data into the embedding or feature space
  1. Learning algorithm designed to discover linear patterns in that space
The input data is mapped to a higher-dimensional space to enable modeling with linear functions, using inner product operations in the mapped space to calculate linear functions. By doing this, non-linear problems are solved. For Non-separable case, kernel mapping increase the likelihood to find linearly separable but cannot guarantee it.
The algorithms are implemented in such a way that the coordinates of the embedded points are not needed, only their pairwise inner products. The pairwise inner products can be computed efficiently directly from the original points using a kernel function. i.e. Theoretically
Feature Map
is required. However, calculations are possible by just knowing the
Kernel Function
.
Gram Matrix
is used with valid kernel functions.
