Hello guys,
When we first heard Machine Learning, the first question in our mind is that, actually what the machine learning is?
So Machine Learning is system that can learn from example through self improvement without explicitly code by programmer. It means that the machine can learn from data to produce accurate result.
Difference Between Traditional Programming And Machine Learning
The machine learning is slightly differ than the traditional programming.
In traditional programming we have some input data and we want to build some output, so that programmer build some logic using which the input is taken and output is produced.
In simple words the programmer enforce some rules in system so that output is produced. But when the system grows complex then the rules also need to be rewritten, So it is difficult to maintain day by day.
But in machine learning we can overcome this issue. The machine learns that how the input data and output data are correlated and write rules itself.
The programmer need not to write new rules when system grows. The algorithm automatically adapt that new rules and improve the efficiency.
How Does Machine Learning Work?
Machine learning is the brain where all the learning takes place. The machine learning works similar to human being. Humans are learn from experiences, in similar manner machine is learn from the past behavior and improve efficiency of the algorithm.
Similarly when human interact with the situation in which they doesn’t have any knowledge then it is difficult for human to give response, same way when we give some input data in which machine does not have any past information then machine faces difficulty to take decision, and also decision is not very accurate.
Flavors Of Machine Learning
We can think machine learning as different flavors. The most of them are listed below.
- Supervised Learning
- Unsupervised Learning
- Semi Supervised Learning
- Reinforcement Learning
In next article, we will learn about each of them in detail.
Hope this article clears the word “what machine learning is”.
Happy Learning
