Artificial Intelligence harnesses algorithms like Breadth First Search (BFS) and Depth First Search (DFS) for effective problem-solving. Before delving into these techniques, it’s vital to understand the core of a search algorithm. From ancient foragers to modern navigators, our pursuit of solutions has evolved. Illustrated through Lisa’s quest for a rare lipstick shade, BFS shows organized yet potentially redundant traits, while the strategic DFS proves more efficient. Both algorithms face challenges in larger search spaces, paving the way for future exploration into heuristic solutions. Connect for further insights.

SVM, a potent algorithm championed by Vladimir N. Vapnik, triumphed in image classification after being overlooked for three decades. This supervised machine learning tool classifies data points with hyperplanes, excelling in both binary and multilinear classification. SVM’s quest for an optimal hyperplane involves maximizing margin, achieved through Lagrange Multipliers and the Kernel Trick. Though not the primary choice for modern image classification, SVM proves effective for datasets with fewer parameters, showcasing that machine learning at its core is deeply intertwined with mathematics.
