How Do Machines Learn

This document provides an overview of machine learning. It explains that supervised machine learning relies on labeled training data to classify new examples, while unsupervised learning finds patterns in unlabeled data. The limiting factor for many organizations adopting machine intelligence is access to large labeled datasets. Improving unsupervised and semi-supervised techniques, which require less or no labeled data, is critical to advancing the field and increasing adoption.

A GUIDE TO HOW MACHINES LEARN

All forms of machine learning rely on the availability of large volumes


of data to train algorithms. Most forms of commercially viable MI rely
on supervised machine learning, which is generally more accurate
and reliable than unsupervised learning (at least for now). Therefore,
the limiting factor in organizations’ ability to take advantage of MI
is access to a large set of well-organized, labeled data. Improving
techniques for unsupervised learning, which relies only on unstructured,
unlabeled data, and semi- supervised learning, which requires less
labeled data, will be critical to advancing the field of MI and increasing
the number of organizations that have access to it.

How Supervised Machine Learning Works


STEP 1 STEP 2
Provide the machine learning algorithm categorized or Feed the machine new, unlabeled information to see if it tags
“labeled” input and output data from to learn new data appropriately. If not, continue refining the algorithm TYPES OF PROBLEMS TO WHICH IT’S SUITED

CLASSIFICATION
Sorting items
“CATS” into categories
Label
“CATS”
REGRESSION
“NOT CATS” Identifying
real values
MACHINE MACHINE (dollars, weight, etc.)

How Unsupervised Machine Learning Works


STEP 1 STEP 2
Provide the machine learning algorithm uncategorized, Observe and learn from the
unlabeled input data to see what patterns it finds patterns the machine identifies TYPES OF PROBLEMS TO WHICH IT’S SUITED

CLUSTERING
Identifying similarities
in groups
For Example: Are there
SIMILAR GROUP 1 patterns in the data to
indicate certain patients
will respond better to this
treatment than others?

ANOMALY
SIMILAR GROUP 2 DETECTION
Identifying abnormalities
MACHINE MACHINE in data
For Example: Is a hacker
intruding in our network?
