 Machine Learning Basics-Definition

ML is a type of AI that enables software applications to grow increasingly effective

The capability of AI systems to learn by extracting patterns from data is known as

It usually delivers quicker, more accurate results to help you spot profitable
opportunities on dangerous risks.
 Machine Learning Basics-Definition
It uses techniques + theories of

mathematics,

statistics,

computer science,

domain knowledge, and

information science to

build model.
 Machine Learning Basics-Definition

It can be used in any situation where

there are probabilistic elements to a

problem, but it is specially useful

when manipulating and analyzing

large volume data.

ML makes the use of big data

tools, and platforms to supply

a large amount of data, so

that the model can be trained

properly to make more

accurate predictions
 Machine Learning Basics-Benefits
ML enables automation

by giving machines, the

ability to use.

Allowing them to make

decisions, and self-

improve algorithms that

is capable enough.
 Machine Learning Basics-Benefits

ML is capable of managing,

and processing any form of

data, that can’t be demanded

from normal system.

The demand for ML is

rapidly increasing.

ML is expected to continue

to grow significantly in the future.

This demand is primarily because these ML engineers and their applied skills have
resulted in great success for companies around the world.

There are many companies around the globe, which are hiring machine engineers
and experts.

DS covers the whole

spectrum of data processing, while

ML has the algorithmic or statistical

aspects.

Machine Learning Basics-Features
 Machine Learning Basics-Features
Feature 01: Pattern detection can be defined as the classification of data based
on knowledge already gained or on statistical information extracted from the
patterns.
Feature 02: A change when exposed to new data by using a method is called as
reinforcement learning. It uses external feedback to teach the system to change its
internal workings in order to guess better next time.
Feature 03: ML uses algorithms that learn from previous data to help produce
reliable and repeatable decisions.
Feature 04: Statistical and ML algorithms that teach patterns, and relationships
from data, can also express them as mathematical equations.
Machine Learning Basics-Traditional Approach vs. ML Approach
Machine Learning Basics-Traditional Approach vs. ML Approach
 TRADITIONAL APPROACH

Traditionally, you would hard code the decision rule for a problem at hand,
evaluate the results of the program, if results were satisfactory, the program would
be deployed in production. If the results were not as expected, one would review
the errors, change the program, and evaluated again.

This iterative process continues till one gets the expected result.
 MACHINE LEARNING APPROACH
The decision rules are not hard coded.

The problem is solved by training a model with the training data in order to derive
or learn an algorithm that best represents the relationship.

This trained model is then evaluated against test data.

If the results were satisfactory, the model would be deployed in production, and if

the results were not satisfactory, then the training is repeated with some changes.
