AI Class Notes - Session 2: Machine Learning Fundamentals and Its Application in AI

Date: October 23, 2024


Professor: Dr. Jane Smith
Location: University of Tech, Room 102

1. Introduction to Machine Learning (ML):


- Definition of ML: Machine Learning is a subset of AI that provides systems the
ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly
programmed.
- Types of Machine Learning: Overview of supervised, unsupervised, and
reinforcement learning.

2. Supervised Learning:
- Concept and Applications: Focus on learning a function that maps an input to
an output based on example input-output pairs.
- Algorithms: Brief introduction to linear regression, logistic regression,
decision trees, and neural networks.
- Real-World Examples: How supervised learning is used in facial recognition and
recommendation systems.

3. Unsupervised Learning:
- Understanding Unsupervised Learning: Algorithms that learn patterns from
untagged data.
- Techniques: Clustering, association, and dimensionality reduction.
- Use Cases: Market basket analysis and customer segmentation in marketing
strategies.

4. Reinforcement Learning:
- Basics of Reinforcement Learning: Algorithms learn to make sequences of
decisions by receiving rewards or penalties.
- Key Concepts: Agents, environments, states, actions, and rewards.
- Application Scenarios: Video game AI, robotic navigation, and financial
strategy development.

5. Deep Learning and Neural Networks:


- Introduction to Deep Learning: A class of machine learning techniques that use
networks capable of learning from data that is unstructured or unlabeled.
- Architecture of Neural Networks: Discussion on the layers and how they
function, including input, hidden, and output layers.
- Popular Models: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural
Networks (RNNs), with applications in image and speech recognition.

6. Machine Learning's Role in Prompt Engineering:


- Utilizing ML in Prompt Design: How machine learning can optimize the creation
of prompts for AI applications.
- Case Studies: Examples from tech companies that use ML to refine their prompt
engineering strategies to enhance user interaction with AI systems.

7. Practical Exercise:
- Students will use a simple linear regression model to predict outcomes based
on given data sets.
- Analysis of how changing different parameters can influence the AI’s learning
and prediction accuracy.

8. Homework:
- Read chapters 3 and 4 of "Machine Learning Today: From Theory to Practical
Applications" by Dr. Linda Lee.
- Prepare a short presentation on how deep learning could revolutionize one
industry of your choice.

Summary:
In today’s session, we delved deeper into the essential concepts of machine
learning, which is at the heart of most AI applications today. We explored how
these learning paradigms contribute to the development of sophisticated AI systems
and how they are integrated into the field of prompt engineering to make AI
interactions more efficient and user-friendly.
