+### The Classifier
 
-Blockprint's classifier is a k-nearest neighbours classifier in `knn_classifier.py`.
+Blockprint's classifier utilizes one of two machine learning algorithms:
 
-See `./knn_classifier.py --help` for command line options including cross
+- K-nearest neighbours
+- Multi-layer Perceptron
+
+These can be chosen with the `--classifier-type` flag in `classifier.py`.
+
+See `./classifier.py --help` for more command line options including cross
 validation (CV) and manual classification.
