About
• subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• name is derived from the concept that it deals with
“construction and study of systems that can learn from
data”
• can be seen as building blocks to make computers learn
to behave more intelligently
• It is a theoretical concept. There are various techniques
with various implementations.
Terminology
• Features
– The number of features or distinct traits that can be used to
describe
each item in a quantitative manner.
• Samples
– A sample is an item to process (e.g. classify). It can be a document,
a picture, a sound, a video, a row in database or CSV file, or
whatever you can describe with a fixed set of quantitative traits.
• Feature vector
– is an n-dimensional vector of numerical features that represent
some
object.
• Feature extraction
– Preparation of feature vector
– transforms the data in the high-dimensional space to a space of
fewer dimensions.
• Training/Evolution set
– Set of data to discover potentially predictive relationships.

Techniques
Techniques
• classification: predict class from
observations
• clustering: group observations
into “meaningful” groups
• regression (prediction): predict value
from observations
Classificatio
• n into a predefined category.
classify a document
• documents can be text, images
• Popular one is Naive Bayes Classifier.
• Steps:
– Step1 : Train the program (Building a Model) using a
training set with a category for e.g. sports, cricket,
news,
– Classifier will compute probability for each word, the
probability that it makes a document belong to each
of considered categories
– Step2 : Test with a test data set against this Model
Clusterin
• g of grouping a set of objects
clustering is the task
in such a way that objects in the same group
(called a cluster) are more similar to each other
• objects are not predefined
• For e.g. these keywords
– “man’s shoe”
– “women’s shoe”
– “women’s t-shirt”
– “man’s t-shirt”
– can be cluster into 2 categories “shoe” and “t-shirt”
or “man” and “women”
• Popular ones are K-means clustering and
Hierarchical clustering
K-means
• Clustering
partition n observations into k clusters in which each observation
belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean, serving as a prototype of
the cluster.
Regressio
• is a measure nof the relation
between the mean value of one
variable (e.g. output) and
corresponding values of other
variables (e.g. time and cost).
• regression analysis is a
statistical process for estimating
the relationships among
variables.
• Regression means to predict
the output value using training
data.
• Popular one is Logistic
regression (binary regression)
