CS-233: Exercise 5 Update

Hello All,

There has been a slight modification in Exercise in terms of fixing references and making notations clearer. Nothing changes in the part of coding , so if you have already started working on it, nothing will break down. The changes are following

Section 2.2 : correction of the slide Number to 12 , where Cover theorem is illustrated.
Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.3: notation of x to represent a vector.
Section 3.3: added reference to Kernel Perceptron.

Cheers

Dear students,

we have found a typo in the equation in the Section 3.3, 3rd line. There should be $\sum_{i}^{n}\alpha_{i}y_{i}k(\mathbf{x_{i}}, \mathbf{x})$ instead of $\sum_{i}^{n}\alpha_{i}y_{i}k(\mathbf{x_{i}} \cdot \mathbf{x})$ , i.e. we are passing two vector arguments to the kernel function $k$ , not a dot product of two vectors. We have uploaded the updated .zip archive.
