WHAT IS MACHINE LEARNING

Machine Learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence where computers learn from data
instead of being explicitly programmed. It involves training models to recognize patterns,
make predictions, or perform tasks automatically based on experience. The more data they
process, the better they get at solving problems—like recommending movies, predicting
weather, or even detecting fraud in banking.

Machine Learning (ML) is like teaching computers to learn from experience, just like humans
do! Instead of programming them to do specific tasks step by step, we feed them lots of
data, and they figure out patterns and make decisions on their own.

For example, imagine teaching a kid to recognize cats and dogs. Instead of telling them all
the rules, you show them many pictures, and over time, they start identifying the animals
themselves. ML works in a similar way, helping computers recognize speech, predict
weather, recommend movies, and even drive cars.
WHAT IS SUPERVISED LEARNING ALGORITHM

Supervised machine learning is a fundamental approach for machine learning and artificial
intelligence. It involves training a model using labeled data, where each input comes with a
corresponding correct output. The process is like a teacher guiding a student—hence the
term “supervised” learning. In this article, we’ll explore the key components of supervised
learning, the different types of supervised machine learning algorithms used, and some
practical examples of how it works.

supervised learning is a type of machine learning where a model is trained on labeled


data—meaning each input is paired with the correct output. the model learns by comparing
its predictions with the actual answers provided in the training data. Over time, it adjusts
itself to minimize errors and improve accuracy. The goal of supervised learning is to make
accurate predictions when given new, unseen data.
WHAT IS REGRESSION AND CLASSIFICATION
REGRESSION:
Regression in machine learning refers to a supervised learning technique where the goal is
to predict a continuous numerical value based on one or more independent features. It finds
relationships between variables so that predictions can be made. we have two types of
variables present in regression:

• Dependent Variable (Target): The variable we are trying to predict e.g house price.

• Independent Variables (Features): The input variables that influence the prediction
locality, number of rooms.
CLASSIFICATION
Classification teaches a machine to sort things into categories. It learns by looking at
examples with labels (like emails marked “spam” or “not spam”). After learning, it
can decide which category new items belong to, like identifying if a new email is
spam or not.
