Machine Learning focuses on creating algorithms that can learn from data and make predictions or decisions autonomously. It covers types of learning, including supervised and unsupervised, alongside the basic workflow for building models using tools like scikit-learn. The importance of splitting data for training and evaluation, as well as understanding key evaluation metrics, are also emphasized.

What we have learnt
Revision Tests
Term: Features (X)
Definition: Input variables used in machine learning models (e.g., age, hours studied).
Term: Target (y)
Definition: The output variable that the model is trying to predict (e.g., salary, exam score).
Term: Overfitting
Definition: Occurs when a model performs well on training data but poorly on unseen data due to capturing noise instead of the underlying pattern.
Term: Underfitting
Definition: Occurs when a model is too simple to capture the underlying trends in the data.
Term: Train/Test Split
Definition: The process of dividing data into a training set to train the model and a test set to evaluate its performance.
Term: Mean Squared Error
Definition: A metric used to measure the average squared difference between predictions and actual outcomes in regression tasks.
Term: RΒ² Score
Definition: A metric that indicates the proportion of variance in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variables.
Term: Accuracy
Definition: The ratio of correctly predicted instances to the total instances in classification tasks.
Term: Precision
Definition: The ratio of true positive predictions to all positive predictions made by the model.
Term: Recall
Definition: The ratio of true positive predictions to the total actual positives.
Term: F1 Score
Definition: A metric that combines precision and recall into a single score, useful for evaluating classification models.
