the parameters that are used to either configure a ML model (e.g., the penalty parameter C in a support vector machine, and the learning rate to train a neural network) or to specify the algorithm used to minimize the loss function (e.g., the activation function and optimizer types in a neural network, and the kernel type in a support vector machine).
