Getting started with Machine Learning - Part 1
From previous article , we had a glimpse of what Machine Learning is and how some special software programs called "Machine Learning Algorithms" learns from data. Every machine learning algorithm undergoes rigorous Training and Testing process till its good enough to predict an answer that is as accurate as possible. Now, with this basic idea of Machine Learning and Algorithms, let us see how can we prepare and get started. To begin any journey we need some basic things required for that journey, a plan (of how we travel), and most importantly the destination. Likewise, for Machine Learning, what is the motive for us to do this, what kind of problem we are trying to solve, and do we have enough " DATA " to explore about that problem and find patterns and solutions from it. Picture: www.bigdataframework.org Lots and Lots of Data is the backbone for Machine Learning. This data can be anything from numbers, texts, pictures, videos, audios etc. We just need appropriat...
