Study Notes

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

AI enables machines to learn from experience, adapt to new inputs, and perform human-like tasks.
It augments human abilities rather than replacing them.
AI algorithms identify relationships and patterns humans might miss.
AI applications improve existing analytic technologies (computer vision, time series analysis).
AI breaks down economic barriers, including language translation.

Applications of AI

Healthcare: Personalized medicine, X-ray readings, personal health assistants.
Retail: Virtual shopping, personalized recommendations, improved stock management, and site layout.
Manufacturing: Forecasting load and demand using IoT data and recurrent networks.
Banking: Fraud detection, credit scoring, automated data management.

Machine Learning (ML)

ML automates programming by letting data do the work instead of writing explicit code.
It's analogous to gardening: algorithms are seeds, data is nutrients, you are the gardener, and programs are plants.
Every ML algorithm comprises representation, evaluation, and optimization components.

Components of a Machine Learning Algorithm

Representation: Decision trees, KNN, neural networks, support vector machines.
Evaluation: Accuracy, precision and recall, squared error, posterior probability, entropy.
Optimization: Combinatorial optimization, convex optimization, constrained optimization.

Machine Learning Capabilities and Limitations

Capabilities: Forecasting, memorizing, reproducing, choosing the best item.
Limitations: Creating something new, rapidly gaining intelligence, exceeding task boundaries.

Three Essential Components of Machine Learning

Data: More diverse data leads to better results.
Features: Parameters or variables that the machine analyzes.
Algorithms: Different methods affect precision, performance, and model size; poor data undermines even the best algorithm.

AI vs. ML vs. Neural Networks vs. Deep Learning

AI is a broad field encompassing ML.
ML is a subset of AI.
Neural networks are one type of ML algorithm.
Deep learning is a modern neural network architecture; it's not usually separated from "ordinary" neural networks in practice.
