Advantages and disadvantages of various ML algorithms [20–37].

TechniqueAdvantageDisadvantage

SVMIt allows the generation of nonlinear boundariesChoice of kernel
MLPAbility to learn on its ownComplexity is high
DTIndependence of variables is not required. Easy to understandHigh probability of overfitting
KNNTraining time is negligibleDoes not work well with large dataset
NBTraining time remains constant irrespective of sizeFeatures should be independent of each other
