The correct answer is C. Support vector machine (SVM) with non-linear kernel. SVM sample use case is to put the dimensions into a higher hyperplane that can separates it. Seeing how separable it is, SVM can be used for it.

Question

A company wants to classify user behavior as either fraudulent or normal. Based on internal research, a Machine Learning Specialist would like to build a binary classifier based on two features: age of account and transaction month. The class distribution for these features is illustrated in the figure provided. Based on this information, which model would have the HIGHEST accuracy?

Options

  • ALong short-term memory (LSTM) model with scaled exponential linear unit (SELU)
  • BLogistic regression
  • CSupport vector machine (SVM) with non-linear kernel
  • DSingle perceptron with tanh activation function
