Support Vector Machines (SVM) are supervised learning algorithms capable of modeling linear and non-linear functions with efficient training. They can be categorized into linear and non-linear classifiers, with various tuning parameters like kernel, regularization, and gamma impacting performance. SVMs are applied in areas such as facial expression classification and speech recognition, offering advantages like effectiveness and robustness, although they also have limitations in terms of algorithmic complexity and memory requirements.
