In case you're also having trouble figuring out how we arrive at k=1/||w|| from k * (w*w/||w||) = 1:

remember that the dot product of any vector with itself is equal to its squared magnitude. Then, w*w can also be expressed as ||w||^2.
||w||^2/||w|| simplifies to just ||w||. Finally bring ||w|| to the other side by dividing the whole equation by ||w||, and you're done :)

if you also have trouble understanding why exactly the dot product of any vector with itself is equal to its squared magnitude it also helps to know that the magnitude of a vector is the square root of the sum of squares of its components and that sqrt(x) * sqrt(x) = x

I hope that somehow makes sense if you're struggling, surely took me a while to get that lol

This guy is underrated for real. YouTube - throw him into recommendations.

This guy is super smart and he takes sophisticated concepts and explains it in a way where it's digestible without mocking the theory! What a great teacher!

I can't explain how grateful I am for your channel! I am doing an introductory machine learning course at Uni and it's extremely challenging as it's full of complex concepts and the basics aren't explored throughly. Many videos I came across on youtube were too overly simplified and only helped me very briefly to make sense of my course. However, your videos offer the perfect balance, you explore the complex maths and don't oversimplify it, but do so in a way that's easy to understand. I read through this concept several times before watching your video, but only now do I feel as if I TRULY understand it. I HIGHLY appreciate the work you do and look forward to supporting your channel.

This has been simultaneously the simplest, most detailed and yet most concise explanation of this topic I've come across so far. Much appreciated! I hope you keep making awesome content!

Just to add onto all the love, I'm a data scientist in marketing and you are my number one channel for reviewing concepts. You are a very talented individual!

I think this might be top 5 explanations of SVM mathematics all-time. Very well done

Another great video on SVM. As a mathematician I do appreciate your succinct yet accurate exposition not playing around with irrelevant details.

This is the best and the most intuitive explanation for SVM. It is really hard for me to actually read research papers and understand what story each line of the equation is telling. But you made it soo intuitive. Thanks a ton! Please Please make more videos like this

Question on the notation.
The image shows that the vector between the central line and decision line is w. So, I think, that w is the length of the decision boundary. But then we go on to show that the length of the decision boundary is k=1/||w||. So I'm not clear on what w (or k, for that matter) are actually representing.

Dude thank you! now these equations don't feel like they were pulled out of thin air. and the best part is I can work them out too! I haven't done linear algebra in almost a decade so I got stuck on the ||w||/(w*w) part for a good bit but this pushed me to refresh some concepts and figure it out! Thank you
