Machine Learning Basics

Machine Learning Basics

Machine Learning (ML) is a crucial area within Artificial Intelligence that enables systems to learn from data without being explicitly programmed. It covers various learning paradigms, including supervised and unsupervised learning, the training and evaluation of models, as well as addressing the bias-variance trade-off. Mastering these principles is fundamental for creating effective machine learning systems that can generalize well to new data.

What we have learnt

  • Machine Learning is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence that allows systems to learn from data.
  • Supervised learning involves training on labeled data, while unsupervised learning involves unlabeled data.
  • The training process includes a training set, validation set, and test set for model evaluation.

Key Concepts

-- Supervised Learning
A type of machine learning where the algorithm learns from labeled data to predict outcomes for new data.
-- Unsupervised Learning
A type of machine learning where the algorithm identifies patterns and groupings in unlabeled data.
-- BiasVariance Tradeoff
The balance between a model's ability to minimize bias (error due to assumptions) and variance (error due to sensitivity to fluctuations in training data).
-- CrossValidation
A technique used to evaluate how the results of a statistical analysis will generalize to an independent dataset.
