Slide 2: Introduction to AI and Machine Learning Title: Understanding AI and Machine Learning
Content:
Artificial Intelligence (AI): The simulation of human intelligence in machines.
Machine Learning (ML): A subset of AI that enables machines to learn patterns from
data and make predictions.
Deep Learning (DL): A subset of ML that uses neural networks for more complex pattern
recognition.
Presenter Notes:
AI is a broad field focused on creating intelligent systems.
Machine Learning is a key branch of AI, enabling computers to analyze data and make
decisions.
Deep Learning, a more advanced form, uses neural networks to process complex
biological data.
Slide 3: Types of Machine Learning Title: Types of Machine Learning
Content:
1. Supervised Learning: Uses labeled data to train models (e.g., disease classification).
2. Unsupervised Learning: Identifies patterns in unlabeled data (e.g., clustering genes
based on expression levels).
3. Reinforcement Learning: Uses trial-and-error to optimize actions (e.g., protein folding
simulations).
Presenter Notes:
In supervised learning, models are trained on known input-output pairs.
Unsupervised learning is useful for discovering hidden patterns in data.
Reinforcement learning is widely used in complex problem-solving scenarios like protein
structure prediction.
