Introduction to 10 Common Machine Learning Algorithms (Part 1)

1. Linear Regression Linear regression is a statistical method used to study the relationship between two continuous variables: one independent variable and one dependent variable. The goal of linear regression is to find the best-fit line through a set of data points, which can then be used to predict future observations. The equation for a … Read more

An Overview of Linear Regression in Machine Learning

1. Introduction to Linear Regression 1.1 Origin of Regression Francis Galton, a British biologist, studied the relationship between the heights of parents and their children. He concluded that if parents are taller than the average height of the population, their children tend to be shorter than their parents, moving closer to the average height of … Read more

The Algorithm of Algorithms: Artificial Neural Networks

The Algorithm of Algorithms: Artificial Neural Networks

In last week’s artificial neural network course, we introduced the connection between Support Vector Machines (SVM) and feedforward networks RBF in machine learning, and the representation of adaptive linear elements (ADLINE) composed of linear functions in a single-layer network is quite similar to adaptive filters in traditional signal processing. All of this shows that neural … Read more

Understanding K-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm in Machine Learning

1. Basic Concepts The K-nearest neighbors method (KNN) can be used for both classification and regression. The difference between KNN for regression and classification lies in the decision-making process during the final prediction. When KNN is used for classification, it generally employs a majority voting method. When KNN is used for regression, it typically uses … Read more
