Study Notes
Machine Learning
Definition: Machine Learning is a subset of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that involves training algorithms to learn from data and make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed.
Types of Machine Learning:
- Supervised Learning: The algorithm is trained on labeled data, where the correct output is already known. The goal is to learn a mapping between input data and the corresponding output labels.
- Unsupervised Learning: The algorithm is trained on unlabeled data, and the goal is to discover patterns or structure in the data.
- Reinforcement Learning: The algorithm learns by interacting with an environment and receiving feedback in the form of rewards or penalties.
Key Concepts:
- Overfitting: When a model is too complex and performs well on the training data but poorly on new, unseen data.
- Underfitting: When a model is too simple and fails to capture the underlying patterns in the data.
- Bias-Variance Tradeoff: The tradeoff between the error introduced by simplifying a model to avoid overfitting (bias) and the error introduced by using a complex model to avoid underfitting (variance).
Machine Learning Algorithms:
- Linear Regression: A linear model that predicts a continuous output variable.
- Decision Trees: A tree-based model that splits the data into subsets based on features.
- Random Forest: An ensemble method that combines multiple decision trees to improve prediction accuracy.
- Neural Networks: A model inspired by the structure and function of the human brain, used for complex tasks like image and speech recognition.
Applications of Machine Learning:
- Image and Speech Recognition
- Natural Language Processing
- Recommendation Systems
- Predictive Maintenance
Challenges in Machine Learning:
- Data Quality: Poor data quality can lead to biased or inaccurate models.
- Interpretability: Difficulty in understanding how a model arrives at its predictions.
- Explainability: Difficulty in explaining the decisions made by a model.
