• Several Results from Learning Theory
• Design a Simple SVM and its Kernelized Version
• Design an SVM in Nonseparable Case
• A General Formulation of SVM

Aims
This short introduction acts as a reminder of the audiences for later topics on S3VM, because there has been some time since Prof. Junping Zhang gave us the talk on SVM.
