Introduction to Machine Learning

what is Machine Learning (ML)?

“Learning is any process by which a system improves performance from experience.”
- Herbert Simon

-Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) which focuses on the use of data and
algorithms to imitate the way that humans learn, gradually improving its accuracy.
-Use of data to enable the machine to improve by experience.
Types of Machine Learning
1. Supervised Learning is the machine learning task of learning a function that maps an input to an
output based on example input-output pairs.
-algorithm is trained on input data that has been labeled for a particular output.
2. Unsupervised Learning is a type of machine learning in which the algorithm is not provided with any
pre-assigned labels or scores for the training data.
