Machine Learning Algorithms Explained with Examples

1. Supervised Learning Algorithms

Linear Regression

Use: Predicting continuous values

How it works: Finds the best-fit straight line to predict output from input.

Example: Predicting house price based on area.

Logistic Regression

Use: Classification (binary/multiclass)

How it works: Uses a sigmoid function to predict probability between 0 and 1.

Example: Email spam detection.

Decision Tree

Use: Classification and regression

How it works: Splits data based on feature values to reach a decision.

Example: Diagnosing diseases based on symptoms.

Random Forest

Use: Ensemble classification/regression

How it works: Combines multiple decision trees to improve accuracy.

Example: Predicting customer churn.

Support Vector Machine (SVM)

Use: Classification

How it works: Finds a hyperplane that best separates classes.

Example: Face recognition.

K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN)

Use: Classification and regression

How it works: Classifies based on the majority class among 'k' nearest neighbors.

Example: Recommending products based on similar users.

2. Unsupervised Learning Algorithms

K-Means Clustering

Use: Grouping data into clusters

How it works: Partitions data into k clusters based on similarity.


Machine Learning Algorithms Explained with Examples

Example: Market segmentation.

Hierarchical Clustering

Use: Creating a tree of clusters

How it works: Builds a hierarchy of clusters either bottom-up or top-down.

Example: Gene sequence analysis.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA)

Use: Dimensionality reduction

How it works: Reduces dimensions by transforming data into principal components.

Example: Compressing high-dimensional image data.

3. Reinforcement Learning Algorithms

Q-Learning

Use: Model-free reinforcement learning

How it works: Learns value of actions to maximize cumulative reward.

Example: Teaching a robot to navigate a maze.

Deep Q Network (DQN)

Use: Uses neural networks with Q-learning

How it works: Approximates Q-values using deep neural networks.

Example: Playing video games using reinforcement learning.
