Using Machine Learning for Good(ML Applications)

One of the most exciting technologies one has ever encountered is machine learning. It gives the computer something that makes it more like humans, as the name suggests: the capacity for learning.

Today, machine learning is being used in a lot more places than one might think.Without even realizing it, we probably employ a learning algorithm dozens of times.Machine learning can be used for:

  • Engine for Web Search: The system has learned how to rank pages through a complex learning algorithm, which is one of the reasons why search engines like Google, Bing, and others work so well.
  • Photo tagging Application: The ability to tag friends makes photo-tagging apps like Facebook and others even more popular. A face recognition algorithm that runs behind the application makes all of this possible.
  • Anti-Spam Device: When it comes to categorizing messages and moving spam messages to the spam folder, our mail agents, such as Gmail or Hotmail, do a lot of the heavy lifting for us. Again, a spam classifier in the mail application's back end accomplishes this.

Machine learning is now being used by businesses to do a wide range of things, including making better business decisions, increasing productivity, identifying diseases, forecasting the weather, and more. We need better tools to understand the data we have now, but we also need to prepare for the data we will have in the future as technology grows at an exponential rate. We must develop intelligent machines in order to achieve this objective. A simple program can be written by us. However, hardwiring intelligence into it is difficult most of the time. The best approach is for machines to learn things on their own. A learning mechanism: A machine does the hard work for us if it can learn from the input. Machine learning comes into play here. Machine learning can be seen in:

  • Data mining to advance automation: Web-click data for improved UX (User Experience), medical records for improved healthcare automation, biological data, and numerous other applications are typical.
  • Applications that are impossible to program like NLP or Pattern Recognition: Because the computers we use aren't designed that way, there are some tasks that can't be programmed. Natural language processing, computer vision, and autonomous driving are just a few examples. Other examples include recognition tasks based on unordered data (such as facial and handwriting recognition).
  • Arthur Samuel (1959)- Understanding how people learn: The closest we have come to understanding and imitating the human brain is in this. The real AI is the beginning of a new revolution. Following this brief overview, let's move on to a more formal definition of machine learning from Arthur Samuel (1959). The field of study known as machine learning gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. Samuel created a Checker-playing application that could be learned over time. It might be easy to win at first. However, over time, it acquired all of the board positions that would ultimately determine whether he would win or lose, making him a better chess player than Samuel. This, which is somewhat less formal, was one of the earliest attempts to define Machine Learning.

Brief info on Feature Engineering

Image
Let's start with a good definition of Feature engineering "Feature engineering is the process of transforming raw data into features that better represent the underlying problem to the predictive models, resulting in improved model accuracy on unseen data." 👉 Why is Feature Engineering Crucial? Short Answer: Imagine constructing a magnificent building on a weak foundation - the result would be instability and fragility. Similarly, without thoughtful feature engineering, even the most advanced machine learning algorithms can stumble. 👉 The Art and Science of Feature Engineering. Feature engineering is both an art and a science. It is a highly iterative process that requires constant evaluation and refinement. It involves a feedback loop, where insights gained from model performance guide the creation of new features or adjustments to existing ones. Some of more well known techniques are listed below 1. One-Hot Encoding 2. Label Encoding 3. Target Encoding 4. Binning 5. L

Quick Guide on Quantum Computing

 INTRODUCTION: Welcome to this beginner’s guide to quantum computing! In this blog, we will explore the basics of quantum computing, how it works, and what it can do. By the end of this video, you will have a solid understanding of quantum computing and its potential to revolutionize the world of computing and technology. PART 1: BASICS OF QUANTUM COMPUTING Let’s start with the basics. In classical computing, bits represent either a 0 or a 1. In contrast, in quantum computing, qubits represent a superposition of 0 and 1, which allows for faster and more complex computing. One important concept to understand in quantum computing is entanglement. This refers to the way in which qubits can become connected or entangled with one another. This allows for information to be transmitted between qubits, making quantum computing a powerful tool for communication and encryption.
