Machine learning, a subset of AI, uses algorithms to analyze data, make decisions without explicit programming, and enables autonomous problem-solving.
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Supervised Learning | Trained on labeled data to classify or predict outcomes |
| Unsupervised Learning | Finds patterns in unlabeled data (clustering, anomaly detection) |
| Reinforcement Learning | Achieves goals by maximizing rewards within rules and constraints |
| Dataset Split | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Training Set | Trains the algorithm |
| Validation Set | Fine-tunes and validates the model |
| Test Set | Evaluates model performance |
Deep learning uses neural networks with multiple layers to analyze complex data and continuously improve. It enhances AI’s ability to understand context and intent, excelling in tasks such as:
Neural networks consist of interconnected nodes organized into input, hidden, and output layers. Types include perceptron, feed-forward, deep feed-forward, modular, convolutional (CNN), and recurrent neural networks (RNN).
| Architecture | Key Components/Functionality |
|---|---|
| Variational Autoencoder (VAE) | Encoder (latent space), Decoder (output generation) |
| Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) | Generator (creates data), Discriminator (verifies data) |
| Autoregressive Model | Creates data sequentially, considers context |
| Transformer | Generates text sequences, cross-language translation |
Models can be unimodal (single input/output type) or multimodal (multiple modalities).
Cognitive computing mimics human processes like thinking, reasoning, and problem-solving.
NLP enables computers to interpret and produce human language using machine learning and deep learning. It analyzes sentences grammatically, relationally, and structurally to understand meaning and context.
| Technology | Description |
|---|---|
| IoT Devices | Networked physical devices that collect and share data |
| Cloud Computing | Stores and processes data/services over the internet |
| Edge Computing | Processes data near the source for faster, real-time responses |
The intersection of AI, IoT, cloud, and edge computing enables smart, real-time applications such as AI-powered traffic lights, smart transportation, agriculture, and buildings.
