Margin Theory

Margin Theory is a theoretical framework in supervised learning that characterizes the generalization performance of classifiers, particularly support vector machines, by the size of the separation (margin) between classes in feature space, distinguishing itself from other learning theories by prioritizing margin maximization as a principle for model robustness and error bounds.
