Machine Learning

Definition

● The process of machine learning


typically involves feeding a computer
system large amounts of data, and then
using algorithms to analyze the data
and identify patterns.
● The system then uses these patterns to
make predictions or decisions when
presented with new data.
● Deep learning is an important part of
machine learning.
Real-Life Examples
1. Speech recognition- It can translate speech into normal text. Certain software applications can
convert live voice and recorded speech into a text file easily.

2. Medical diagnosis- Machine learning can help with the diagnosis of several diseases. Many medical
professionals use chatbots with speech recognition capabilities to find out patterns in symptoms.

3. Predictive analytics - This analytics is one of the most promising examples of machine learning. It's
applicable for every domain from service, product development to house or plot pricing.
Supervised Learning
Supervised learning is a type of machine learning where the algorithm is trained
on labeled data to make predictions or classifications on new, unseen data. In
supervised learning, the training data consists of input variables (also known as
features) and their corresponding output variables (also known as labels or
targets).
Unsupervised Learning
Unsupervised learning is a type of machine learning where the algorithm is trained
on unlabeled data, meaning there are no output variables or labels associated
with the data. The goal of unsupervised learning is to find patterns or structure in
the data, such as clustering similar data points together or reducing the
dimensionality of the data.
Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning is a type of


machine learning that involves an agent
learning how to make decisions by
interacting with an environment. In
reinforcement learning, the agent learns
to take actions based on the current state
of the environment and the rewards or
penalties that result from those actions.
What it is?
The concept of machine learning is based on the idea that computers can be
trained to recognize patterns in data and make decisions or predictions based on
that knowledge.
Skills of Machine Learning

● Strong mathematical and statistical


skills
● Programming skills
● Data analysis skills
● Algorithms
● Visualization
Data Pre-Processing
Data Pre-Processing
Data pre-processing is the process of
preparing data for machine learning models.

● cleaning and
● transforming raw data into a format that
can be easily understood by algorithms.

The goal of data pre-processing is to improve


the quality and accuracy of the results
obtained from the model.
Importance of Data Pre-processing
● To ensure that the data is in a suitable format for analysis by machine learning
algorithms.
● Improve the accuracy and reliability of the model by removing inconsistencies
and errors.
● Allows for the normalization of data, which helps to eliminate the impact of
different scales and units of measurement in the data.
Process

1. Discovery:
Discovery step involves acquiring data from all
the identified internal & external sources, which
helps you answer the business question.

2. Preparation:
Data can have many inconsistencies like
missing values, blank columns, an incorrect
data format, which needs to be cleaned. The
cleaner your data, the better are your
predictions.
3. Model Planning:
We need to determine the relation between input variables. Planning for a model is
performed by using different statistical formulas and visualization tools.

4. Model Building:
Here, Data scientist distributes datasets for training and testing. Techniques like
association, classification, and clustering are applied to the training data set.

5. Operationalize:
Model is deployed into a real-time production environment after thorough testing.

6. Communicate Results:
Here the key findings are communicated to all stakeholders. This helps to decide if the
project results are a success or a failure.
Data Collection
● Population:

The population refers to the entire group or collection of individuals, items, or


data points that share a common characteristic. It's the complete set of data
you're interested in studying or analyzing.

● Sample:

A sample is a subset of the population that is selected for the purpose of


conducting statistical analysis.
