Machine learning
getting a computer to do well on a task without explicitly programming it → Improving performance on a task based on experience
Unsupervised learning
learns from data without human supervision
Reinforcement learning
a type of machine learning process that focuses on decision making by autonomous agents
Supervised learning
uses labeled datasets to train algorithms to predict outcomes and recognize patterns
Classification
the model tries to predict the correct label of a given input data. In classification, the model is fully trained using the training data, and then it is evaluated on test data before being used to perform prediction on new unseen data
A decision tree
a supervised learning algorithm used for both classification and regression tasks. It has a hierarchical tree structure which consists of a root node, branches, internal nodes and leaf nodes. It It works like a flowchart help to make decisions step by step
Hunt’s algorithm
builds a decision tree in a recursive fashion by partitioning the training dataset into successively purer subsets - TREE INDUCTION
Gini Splitting
a technique used ito determine the best attribute to split the data at each node.
It relies on the Gini Impurity, which measures how “pure” a node is—meaning how mixed the class labels are
