Machine Learning deals with the set of algorithm which can learn a pattern in different types of user beahviour and help developer to solve various problems:
- Collaborative Filtering (Basket Analysis)
- Classification (Auto Tagging, Spam Filtering)
- Prediction
- Pattern recognition (Clustering)
- Text extraction (Named Entity Recognition)
- Supervised Learning
- Unsupervised Learning
Supervised Learning
In simple words Supervised learning means Learn By Examples. We have prior knowledge about certain domain. Using Supervised Learning we can create a model from existing knowledge which helps us to classify new data. For example:
Spam Classification
We mark existing text as HAM or SPAM and generate a model using this model new text can be categorised in one of the category.Un-Supervised Learning
In unsupervised Learning we do not have any supervisor, rather algorithm tries to learn a mapping from existing data and applies to new data. For example:
Document Clustering
In document clustering we try to group similar documents like we have different types are getting posted to some site using this algorithm we can group them in politics, business, technology etc categories.List of Algorithms
