Study Notes
Machine Learning Overview
- Machine learning (ML) is the study of methods for programming computers to learn.
- It involves building machines that automatically learn from experience.
- ML generally refers to changes that enable systems to accomplish AI tasks, including recognition, diagnosis, planning, robot control, and prediction.
Machine Learning Outlines
- Topics to be covered: Machine learning, applications, steps in ML, advantages/disadvantages of ML, types (regression, supervised, unsupervised ML), and comparisons to deep learning.
What is Machine Learning?
- Machine learning is the study of methods for programming computers to learn.
- Building machines to learn from experience.
- Machine learning involves systems changing; these changes allow tasks related to artificial intelligence like recognition, diagnosis, planning, and robotic control and prediction.
Machine Learning Process
- Data is fed to a learning algorithm
- The algorithm generates a trained model.
- The model processes new data inputs to make predictions.
- The answer is generated.
Data Example (Loan Application)
- Example data includes applicant age, job status, home ownership, credit rating, and approval status (yes/no).
Traditional Programming vs. Machine Learning
- Traditional programming: Data → Program → Computer → Output
- Machine Learning: Data → Computer → Program → Output
Machine Learning Applications
- Image recognition
- Speech recognition
- Recommender systems
- Fraud detection
- Self-driving cars
- Medical diagnosis
- Stock market trading
Steps in Machine Learning
- Data Collection
- Data Representation
- Modeling (Machine Learning Modeling)
- Validation
- Apply learned model to new data (testing)
Advantages of Machine Learning
- Solving vision problems with statistical inference.
- Achieving common sense artificial intelligence.
- Reducing constraints over time and achieving complete autonomy.
Disadvantages of Machine Learning
- Application-specific algorithms.
- Real-world problems may have too many variables and noisy sensors.
- Computational complexity.
Types of Learning
- Supervised Learning: Training data + desired outputs (labels). Example tasks: classification and regression.
-
Unsupervised Learning: Training data (without desired outputs). Example task: clustering.
- Clustering: grouping similar objects.
What is Supervised Learning?
- Supervised learning needs a labeled training dataset.
What is Unsupervised Learning?
- Unsupervised learning does not require labels or ground truth values. The task is to identify patterns, like grouping similar objects.
Example Learning Task
- The goal might be to build a classification model that predicts approval or not approval of a loan based on input data (features) like age, job status, home ownership, credit rating, etc.
Classification vs. Clustering in a Dataset Example
- Example Dataset: Attributes include number of wings, broken wings, living or dead status, wing area and whether they can fly.
- Determine if this is a classification or clustering problem.
Supervised vs. Unsupervised learning
- Supervised learning: The data is labeled with prior defined classes.
- Unsupervised learning: The data's classes are unknown, the task is to establish the existence of classes or clusters.
Supervised Learning Process: Two Steps
- Learning (training): Using the training data to create a model
- Testing: Using unseen test data to evaluate model accuracy. Accuracy is calculated as the ratio of correct classifications to the total number of test cases.
Machine Learning vs Deep Learning
- Deep learning is a specialized type of machine learning that uses artificial neural networks to learn complex patterns/features.
- In machine learning, features need to be extracted from the input data. In deep learning, these features are learned by the network itself, meaning it's an end-to-end process.
Linear Regression
- Linear regression, a supervised machine learning method, predicts continuous output variables. This model learns from labelled datasets.
