Introduction to Machine Learning

Machine Learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on building systems that

can learn from data and make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed. It is

used in various fields, from healthcare to finance, to improve processes and predict outcomes.

Types of Machine Learning:

1. Supervised Learning: Involves training a model on labeled data, where the correct output is

provided for each input.

2. Unsupervised Learning: The model is given data without labels and must find hidden patterns or

groupings in the data.

3. Reinforcement Learning: The model learns by interacting with its environment and receiving

rewards or penalties for actions.

Key Concepts:

1. Dataset: The data used to train and test machine learning models.

2. Model: A mathematical representation of patterns in data, which can be used to make predictions.

3. Training: The process of feeding data into a model to adjust its parameters and improve accuracy.

4. Evaluation: Assessing the performance of a model on test data to ensure it generalizes well.

Applications of Machine Learning:

- Healthcare: Predictive diagnostics, personalized treatment plans.

- Finance: Fraud detection, algorithmic trading.

- Autonomous Vehicles: Self-driving car navigation systems.

- Natural Language Processing: Voice assistants, chatbots.


Machine learning is transforming industries by enabling systems to learn and adapt from data,

leading to smarter decision-making processes.
