Machine Learning inCSC 196K What motivated machine learning? What is machine Learning? Statistics and ML algorithms design
Machine learning is motivated by a class of problems • No traditional algorithmic solution • Computationally expensive • Traditional algorithm Input => algorithm => Output When algorithm=?, we may use machine learning algorithm to construct a mapping function between input and output.
Input and Output for Machine Learning Algorithm • For the class of ML algorithms that generalization performance is based on a given finite number of training examples, we have: Machine Learning algorithm Mapping function Training set
Statistics and ML algorithms design • ML methods overcome shortcomings of statistical methods (estimation, classification, prediction) • Learning bias – prior assumption of a Bayesian • Nonlinearproblems -- regression, linear model • Learning systems that use a hypothesis space -- hypothesis testing • Statistical learning theory (SVM -Support Vector Machine)
Types of Data mining Techniques in CSC 196K • Techniques for data mining covered in csc196K • Data warehousing – OLAP and data preprocessing • Statistics • Machine learning • This course only covers data mining related ML techniques and concepts (a subset of ML methods) • Data mining is one of many applications of machine learning
