Data Classification: Nearest Neighbour and Linear Classifiers

This post covers my key takeaways from Stanford's CS231n (2016) Lecture 2 by Andrej Karpathy. The lecture focuses on data classification strategies, specifically comparing the Nearest Neighbour approach to Linear Classification. Link: CS231n 2016 Lecture 2 . The Nearest Neighbour Approach One of the earliest approaches to classification was the Nearest Neighbour algorithm. This method classifies…
