Study Notes
Machine Learning
Decision Trees
- Definition: A decision tree is a tree-like model that splits data into subsets based on features.
-
How it works:
- Root node represents the entire dataset
- Decision nodes represent features and their possible values
- Leaf nodes represent predicted classes or values
- Algorithm recursively partitions data until stopping criterion is met
-
Types:
- Classification Trees: Predict categorical labels
- Regression Trees: Predict continuous values
-
Advantages:
- Easy to interpret and visualize
- Handle missing values and outliers well
- Fast computation
-
Disadvantages:
- Prone to overfitting
- Greedy algorithm may not find optimal solution
Clustering
- Definition: Clustering is an unsupervised learning method that groups similar data points into clusters.
-
Types:
- K-Means: partitions data into K clusters based on mean distance
- Hierarchical Clustering: builds a hierarchy of clusters by merging or splitting existing clusters
- DBSCAN: density-based clustering that groups points with high density
-
Clustering Evaluation Metrics:
- Silhouette Coefficient: measures separation and cohesion within clusters
- Calinski-Harabasz Index: evaluates cluster cohesion and separation
-
Applications:
- Customer segmentation
- Gene expression analysis
- Image segmentation
Neural Networks
- Definition: A neural network is a model inspired by the structure and function of the human brain.
-
Architecture:
- Input Layer: receives input features
- Hidden Layers: process and transform inputs
- Output Layer: produces predicted outputs
-
Types:
- Feedforward Networks: data flows only in one direction
- Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs): data flows in a loop, allowing feedback
- Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs): designed for image and signal processing
-
Training:
- Backpropagation: computes error gradients for weight updates
- Optimization Algorithms: e.g., Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), Adam, RMSProp
-
Applications:
- Image classification
- Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Speech recognition

Decision Trees
- A decision tree is a type of supervised learning algorithm that uses a tree-like model to classify data or predict continuous outcomes.
- The root node represents the input data, decision nodes represent the features or attributes used to split the data, and leaf nodes represent the predicted outcomes or class labels.
- The algorithm starts at the root node and recursively splits the data into subsets based on the values of the input features.
- The splitting process is based on a specific criterion, such as information gain or Gini impurity.
- The process continues until a stopping criterion is reached, such as a maximum depth or a minimum number of samples.
- Decision trees are easy to interpret and visualize and can handle both categorical and numerical data, as well as missing values.
- However, they can be prone to overfitting and computationally expensive for large datasets.
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- NLP is a subfield of artificial intelligence that deals with the interaction between computers and humans in natural language.
- Key tasks in NLP include tokenization, sentiment analysis, named entity recognition, and language translation.
- Tokenization involves breaking down text into individual words or tokens.
- Sentiment analysis determines the emotional tone or sentiment behind a piece of text.
- Named entity recognition identifies and categorizes named entities in text, such as people, places, and organizations.
- Language translation involves translating text from one language to another.
- There are three types of NLP: rule-based NLP, statistical NLP, and machine learning NLP.
- Applications of NLP include text classification, language translation, and chatbots.
