Consider the following one-dimensional dataset for the next two questions. There are two classes (blue circles and red squares).
[references image above] Where is the decision boundary of a (hard margin) linear SVM classifier trained on the full dataset? *
[references image above] What is the leave-one-out cross-validation error (i.e. average fraction of misclassified points from 6-fold cross-validation) for a hard-margin linear SVM classifier on this data? *
Gradient descent will always converge to a global minimum, even for non-convex functions. *
Please match the four values of C to the four figures. For each row (i.e. figure), select the column which corresponds to the correct value of C. *
