Machine Learning Algorithms

Machine Learning in layman definition: is the ability of a system to learn and improve from experience (data) without being explicitly programmed. or is the way to make computers learn how to perform complex tasks whose processes cannot be easily described by humans.

Machine learning Algorithm is the ability of a computer program to search for patterns in data to make better decisions. or a set of procedures that help a model adapt to the data given. or specifies the way the data is transformed from input to output and how the model learns the appropriate mapping from input to output.

Machine Learning Techniques/Style learning style is the ways an algorithm model a problem based on its interaction with the experience or environment. Learning Style an Algorithm can Adopt is Supervised Learning, Unsupervised learning, Semi-supervised and Reinforcement Learning.

List of Most used Algorithms

• Support Vector Machine
• K-Nearest-Neighbor (KNN)
• K-Means
• Decision Tree
• Random Forest
• CART (Classification And Regression Tree)
• Apriori
• Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for dimensionality reduction Algorithm.
• Linear Regression
• Logistic Regression
• CatBoost
• Iterative Dichotomiser 3 (ID3)
• Hierarchical Clustering
• Backpropagation
• Naive Bayes
• AdaBoost
• Deep Learning
• Gradient Boosting (XGBoost and LightGBM)
• Hopfield Network
• C4.5

Real-world applications of Machine learning

• Stock Trading prediction (Recurrent Neural Network)
• Web search and recommendation engine e.g Google search and google map, Netflix and Amazon product recommendation
• Drug discovery and Computational Biology (Generative Adversarial Networks)
• Credit card Fraud detection e.g Paypal credit card fraud detection.
• Face detection and Recognition e.g #facebook Face recognition and friend suggestions
• Spam detection e.g Gmail spam classification
• A medical diagnosis for detecting diseases
• Suspicious activity detection from a CCTV camera. ( computer vision)
• Speech Understanding and conversion from one language to another e.g Apple Siri, Microsoft Cortana, Amazon Echo.

Note deep learning is just a machine learning Algorithm as Logistic Regression is.
