Machine Learning
Machine Learning
developing algorithms and techniques that enable computers to learn from and make
predictions or decisions based on data without being explicitly programmed. It's a
rapidly growing field with applications in various domains, including healthcare,
finance, marketing, transportation, and more. Here's an introduction to key
concepts in machine learning:
Features: Features are the input variables or attributes used to describe each
example in the dataset. Feature selection and engineering play a crucial role in
determining the performance of machine learning models.
Model: The model is the mathematical representation of the relationship between
input features and output labels. Different machine learning algorithms use
different models to make predictions or decisions.
Loss Function: The loss function measures the difference between predicted and
actual outcomes and serves as a guide for adjusting the model parameters during
training.
Optimization Algorithm: The optimization algorithm is used to minimize the loss
function and optimize the model parameters. Common optimization algorithms include
gradient descent and its variants.
Applications:
