Machine learning (ML) is a subset of artificial intelligence that enables systems to learn patterns from data without being explicitly programmed. It's widely used in applications like image recognition, natural language processing, and predictive analytics.

Key Concepts

  • Data Training: Feeding models with labeled datasets to identify relationships.
  • Features & Labels: Input variables (features) and the target output (label) that the model predicts.
  • Model Evaluation: Measuring performance using metrics like accuracy or F1 score.

Types of Machine Learning

  1. Supervised Learning (e.g., classification, regression)
  2. Unsupervised Learning (e.g., clustering, dimensionality reduction)
  3. Reinforcement Learning (e.g., game-playing algorithms)

Learning Steps

  1. Collect and preprocess data 📊
  2. Split data into training and testing sets 🔢
  3. Choose a model and train it 🛠️
  4. Evaluate and optimize the model 🔄
