Bayesian Support Vector Machine

Bayesian SVM places a prior distribution over the weight vector of a standard SVM and derives a full posterior, enabling calibrated uncertainty estimates, automatic hyperparameter selection, and probabilistic predictions. It combines the strong margin-based geometric intuition of SVMs with the principled uncertainty quantification of Bayesian inference.
