What are support vector machines used for?
A
classification, outliers detection, regression
B
regression
C
outliers detection, classification
D
clustering, classification, outliers detection, regression
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Support vector machines (SVMs) are a set of supervised learning methods used for classification, regression and outliers detection. The advantages of support vector machines are: Effective in high dimensional spaces. Still effective in cases where number of dimensions is greater than the number of samples.

Detailed explanation-2: -Support vector machine (SVM) analysis is a popular machine learning tool for classification and regression, first identified by Vladimir Vapnik and his colleagues in 1992[5]. SVM regression is considered a nonparametric technique because it relies on kernel functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -How an SVM works. A simple linear SVM classifier works by making a straight line between two classes. That means all of the data points on one side of the line will represent a category and the data points on the other side of the line will be put into a different category.
