LECTURE

Training:
 In the context of machine learning and artificial intelligence, refers to the process of
teaching a model to perform a specific task or make predictions based on data. It
involves exposing the model to a large dataset containing examples of the task it needs
to learn, and adjusting its internal parameters so that it can make accurate predictions or
classifications on new, unseen data.
 Data Collection: The first step in training a machine learning model is to gather a dataset
that contains examples of the task the model needs to learn. For example, if the task is
to classify images of cats and dogs, the dataset would include a variety of labeled
images of cats and dogs.

 Data Preprocessing: Raw data is often messy and may require preprocessing before it
can be used for training. This can involve tasks like cleaning, normalization, feature
extraction, and handling missing values.

 Feature Extraction: For many tasks, relevant features need to be extracted from the raw
data. Features are specific attributes or characteristics of the data that are used to make
predictions or classifications. In image recognition, for instance, features might be pixel
values or patterns in the image.

 Model Selection: The choice of model architecture depends on the nature of the task.
Different models (e.g., neural networks, decision trees, support vector machines) are
suited for different types of tasks (e.g., regression, classification, clustering).

 Initialization: The model's internal parameters are initialized randomly or with some
predefined values. These parameters will be adjusted during the training process to
improve the model's performance.

 Loss Function and Optimization: A loss function is used to quantify how well the model is
performing on the training data. The goal during training is to minimize this loss.
Optimization algorithms (e.g., gradient descent) are used to adjust the model's
parameters in the direction that minimizes the loss.
 Forward and Backward Pass: During each training iteration (epoch), the model makes
predictions on the training data (forward pass) and then calculates the loss. The
gradients of the loss with respect to the model's parameters are computed (backward
pass), which guides the parameter updates.

 Validation and Evaluation: A portion of the data (not seen during training) is set aside for
validation. The model's performance on this validation set is monitored to prevent
overfitting (where the model memorizes the training data but fails on new data).

 Hyperparameter Tuning: Parameters that are not learned during training (e.g., learning
rate, regularization strength) are called hyperparameters. These need to be tuned to find
the best settings for the model.

 Iterative Process: Training is an iterative process. The model goes through multiple
epochs, each time refining its internal parameters to improve its performance.

 Testing and Deployment: Once the model has been trained and validated, it can be
tested on a separate test set to assess its performance on unseen data. If satisfactory,
the model can be deployed for real-world use.
