    a. Support Vector Machine(SVM): Over the past several years, there has been a significant amount of research on support vector machines and today support vector machine applications are becoming more common in text classification. In essence, support vector machines define hyperplanes, which try to separate the values of a given target field. The hyperplanes are defined using kernel functions. The most popular kernel types are supported: linear, polynomial, radial basis and sigmoid. Support Vector
