| Next, we will compare the accuracy of an SVM with a Gaussian kernel on the raw data with accuracy obtained when the data is normalized to be unit vectors (the values of the features of each example are divided by its norm). | Next, we will compare the accuracy of an SVM with a Gaussian kernel on the raw data with accuracy obtained when the data is normalized to be unit vectors (the values of the features of each example are divided by its norm). | ||
| This is different than standardization which operates at the level of individual features. Normalizing to unit vectors is more appropriate for this dataset as it is sparse, i.e. most of the features are zero. | This is different than standardization which operates at the level of individual features.
