Father of AI
1955-56 Proposed Term AI in
Dartmouth Conference
Objectives – Explore ways to
make
1. Machine could reason
like human
2. Capable of abstract
thought
3. Self Improvement
Developed LISP (List
Processing) language for AI
Founded MIT and Stanford’s AI
lab
John McCarthy
• Why Machine Learning?
• Develop systems that can
automatically adapt and customize
themselves to individual users. –
Personalized news or mail filter
• Discover new knowledge from large
databases (data mining).
• Ability to mimic human and replace
certain monotonous tasks
• Develop systems that are too
difficult/expensive to construct
manually because they require specific
detailed skills or knowledge tuned to a
specific task (knowledge engineering
bottleneck).
•Classification: A classification
problem is when the output
variable is a category
– Evaluation
• Numerical functions
– Linear regression
– Neural networks
Evaluation
• Posterior probability
• Cost / Utility
• Margin
• Entropy
• K-L divergence
• etc.
