Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Discriminative models are a class of models used in machine learning for modeling the dependence of an unobserved variable y on an observed variable x. Within a statistical framework, this is done by modeling the conditional probability distribution P(y | x), which can be used for predicting y from x. Discriminative models differ from generative models in that they do not allow one to generate samples from the joint distribution of x and y.
