- 1Artificial Intelligence (AI)The capability of computational systems to perform tasks typically associated with human intelligence: learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, decision-making
- 2Machine LearningStudy of programs that can improve their performance on a given task automatically, without being explicitly programmed
- 3Deep LearningType of machine learning that runs inputs through biologically inspired artificial neural networks with multiple layers
- 4Supervised LearningMachine learning where training data is labeled with expected answers; includes classification and regression
- 5Unsupervised LearningMachine learning that finds patterns and makes predictions in unlabeled data without guidance
- 6Reinforcement LearningAgent learns by being rewarded for good responses and punished for bad ones; learns optimal actions through trial and error
- 7Neural NetworkComputing system inspired by biological neural networks; interconnected nodes (neurons) process information in layers
- 8Artificial NeuronBasic unit of neural network; receives inputs, applies weights and activation function, produces output
- 9Activation FunctionFunction in neural network that determines neuron output; introduces non-linearity (e.g., ReLU, sigmoid, tanh)
- 10BackpropagationAlgorithm for training neural networks; calculates gradient of loss function and adjusts weights to minimize error
- 11Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)Deep learning architecture specialized for processing grid-like data (images); uses convolutional layers to detect features
- 12Recurrent Neural Network (RNN)Neural network with loops allowing information persistence; processes sequential data (text, time series)
- 13LSTMLong Short-Term Memory; type of RNN that can learn long-term dependencies; solves vanishing gradient problem
- 14TransformerDeep learning architecture using attention mechanisms; revolutionized NLP; basis for GPT, BERT models (introduced 2017)
- 15Attention MechanismAllows model to focus on relevant parts of input when processing; key component of transformers
- 16Transfer LearningUsing knowledge gained from solving one problem and applying it to a different but related problem
- 17Fine-tuningProcess of taking pre-trained model and adapting it to specific task by training on smaller, task-specific dataset
- 18OverfittingModel performs well on training data but poorly on new data; memorizes instead of learning general patterns
- 19UnderfittingModel too simple to capture underlying patterns; performs poorly on both training and test data
- 20RegularizationTechniques to prevent overfitting by adding constraints or penalties (e.g., L1, L2 regularization, dropout)
- 21DropoutRegularization technique randomly dropping neurons during training to prevent overfitting
- 22Loss FunctionMeasures how well model predictions match actual values; optimization aims to minimize loss
- 23Gradient DescentOptimization algorithm that iteratively adjusts parameters in direction that reduces loss function
- 24Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD)Gradient descent variant using random subsets (mini-batches) of data instead of entire dataset; faster, more scalable
- 25Learning RateHyperparameter controlling step size in gradient descent; affects convergence speed and quality
- 26HyperparameterParameter set before training (not learned); e.g., learning rate, batch size, number of layers
- 27Cross-ValidationTechnique splitting data into multiple folds to evaluate model performance; reduces overfitting risk
- 28K-Fold Cross-ValidationData divided into k folds; model trained k times, each time using different fold as validation set
- 29PrecisionOf positive predictions, what fraction are correct? TP/(TP+FP); measures false positive rate
- 30Recall (Sensitivity)Of actual positives, what fraction are correctly identified? TP/(TP+FN); measures false negative rate
