PowerPoint Content Outline: Unit 2 - Decision Trees and

Computational Learning (Detailed with Figures and Code)

Slide 3: Introduction to Linear Algebra


 Concepts: Scalars, Vectors, Matrices, Dot Product, Transpose, Inverse
 Applications in ML: Feature transformation, dimensionality reduction
 Diagram: Matrix multiplication visual

Slide 4: Linear Regression


 Goal: Predict continuous outcomes based on input features
 Model: (y = _0 + _1 x + )
 Loss Function: Mean Squared Error (MSE)
 Python Snippet:
from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression
model = LinearRegression()
model.fit(X_train, y_train)

 Plot: Regression line fitting on scatter data

Slide 5: Learning with Trees


 Tree-based models: Represent decisions hierarchically
 Advantages: Easy to interpret, non-linear boundaries, handles
missing data
 Diagram: Sample binary decision tree

Slide 6: Decision Trees (ID3, C4.5, CART)


 Concepts:
o Nodes = decision points
o Leaves = outcomes
 Splitting Criteria:
o Information Gain (ID3)
o Gain Ratio (C4.5)
o Gini Index (CART)
 Python Snippet:
from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeClassifier
clf = DecisionTreeClassifier(criterion='entropy')
clf.fit(X_train, y_train)
Slide 7: Constructing Trees using Weka
 Weka GUI: Import dataset → Select classifier → Choose J48 (C4.5)
 Steps:
1. Load ARFF/CSV file
2. Choose “Classify” tab
3. Select J48 → Start training
 Screenshot: Tree output in Weka (insert manually)

Slide 8: Classification and Regression Trees (CART)


 Handles both classification and regression tasks
 Splits: Binary (yes/no)
 Pruning: Reduces overfitting
 Diagram: CART tree with split conditions

Slide 9: Support Vector Machines (SVM)


 Goal: Find hyperplane with maximum margin
 Kernels: Linear, Polynomial, RBF
 Advantages: Works well for high-dimensional data
 Diagram: SVM margin and support vectors
 Python Snippet:
from sklearn.svm import SVC
model = SVC(kernel='linear')
model.fit(X_train, y_train)

Slide 10: Principal Component Analysis (PCA)


 Purpose: Dimensionality reduction while preserving variance
 Steps:
1. Standardize data
2. Compute covariance matrix
3. Find eigenvectors/eigenvalues
 Python Snippet:
from sklearn.decomposition import PCA
pca = PCA(n_components=2)
X_reduced = pca.fit_transform(X)

 Diagram: Projection of high-D data to 2D plane


Slide 11: Deep Choice Model
 Extension of logistic regression for complex decision-making
 Can incorporate deep learning layers to model choices
 Example Use Case: Predicting user selections in recommender
systems
 Note: Research-oriented concept, often implemented using custom
neural nets

Slide 12: Summary


 Linear models are foundational for understanding complex learners
 Decision trees and SVMs offer interpretable and powerful classifiers
 PCA aids in feature reduction for visualization and speed
 Tools like Weka simplify implementation of tree models
