In a few words, what is machine learning?
Machine Learning is a form of Artificial Intelligence that enables computers to learn without being explicitly programmed. It uses data to identify patterns and make predictions, allowing computers to learn from experience. Machine Learning can be used to solve complex problems, such as improving healthcare and predicting market trends.
Understanding Machine Learning
Machine Learning is a subset of artificial intelligence that uses algorithms to train models to identify patterns in data. It is used to make predictions and provide insights into data. Supervised Learning is a type of machine learning task where the model is provided with labeled data and is expected to learn a mapping between the input and output variables. Unsupervised Learning is a type of machine learning task where the model is provided with unlabeled data and is expected to find patterns in the data.
Concepts:
Machine Learning is used to power facial recognition technology, which can recognize faces from digital images or videos. Machine Learning can be used to detect cancer from medical images. Machine Learning can be used to detect fraudulent activity in online banking.
