What is Artificial Intelligence (AI) - Coding Elements

date_rangeMay 02, 2020


Coining the definition in the simplest of termsMachine Learning is a fragment of artificial intelligence that focuses on learning by machines from its own experiences and hence based on its experiences, making predictions. This provides the potential to the machines to make data-driven decisions instead of being programmed explicitly for carrying out a certain task. These algorithms (programs) are designed in such a way that they not only learn but also improve over time, on being exposed to new data.


To throw in a lot more sense, here are a few practical applications of machine learning:

  1. MALWARE PROTECTION - Probably an important application. Machine learning can detect and stop the functioning of malware. Moreover, it can identify the patterns in the use of the cloud to release an alert every time something suspicious happens.

  2. PERSONAL PROTECTION - In India, machine learning could be used for screening people at various events to minimize the queues and thereby increasing safety.

  3. FINANCIAL TRADING - Wanna predict the future of the trade market? Jokes apart, that is getting closer and all credits go to machine learning.

  4. HEALTHCARE - If data is properly analyzed, machine learning can detect many patterns than people actually could. For example, there is a system that can analyze mammography and identify breast cancer, beforehand, in the initial stages, i.e. faster than the doctors.

  5. FRAUD DETECTION - For example, with PayPal it can quickly identify the legitimate transactions, ensuring safety, and preventing fraud.

Next pretty close to it and on the rise as well is Deep learning. Deep Learning is a genus of Machine Learning Algorithms that allow computational models that are composed of diverse processing layers to learn the portrayal of data with numerous levels of abstraction.

 

Now for the obvious question - Where can a person learn machine learning? For the unaware population and also for those who wish to start from scratch, many prestigious institutions offer excellent courses on machine learning and deep learning, individually as well as in collaboration. Another in-demand course is machine learning with python. Python Programming Language undoubtedly is the most acclaimed programming language across the globe. Machine Learning and Deep Learning are also associated with Python. For the course to be picked, Machine Learning with Python and Deep Learning with Python is taught as well. It is mostly available as a regular course, but if you don’t run out of luck you might as well find an online course.

 

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning are the trending topics worldwide and their applications are being brought into effective action not only in businesses but also in all the major segments of our society.

 

AI focuses on building smart machines whereas ML is all about creating the algorithms that allow machines to learn from their own experiences. Taking both into consideration, from recent researches, it is pretty evident that AI and Machine learning have gained their supremacy when it comes to Cybersecurity.

 

This will not only minimize human effort but will also turn out to be cost-effective and make machines less error-prone. Surely there are going to be a few setbacks because both AI and ML are still very likely in their developmental stages.

 

Witnessing the development as of now, it is expected that the enforcement of AI and ML would reduce the human efforts quantitatively but would turn out to be more strenuous. With the two being a perfect fit, they are going to go a long way and unfold more commendable developments in the future.
