Overview

Supervised learning algorithms are essential tools in machine learning, allowing models to learn from labeled data to make predictions. By understanding the relationship between input features and output labels, these algorithms can be applied to various real-world problems, such as spam detection a...

Key Terms

Training Data
Data used to train a model, consisting of input-output pairs.

Example: A dataset of house prices with features like size and location.

Labels
The output or target variable that the model aims to predict.

Example: In a spam detection model, 'spam' or 'not spam' are labels.

Overfitting
When a model learns the training data too well, including noise, leading to poor generalization.

Example: A model that performs well on training data but poorly on test data.

Accuracy
The ratio of correctly predicted instances to the total instances.

Example: If a model predicts 80 out of 100 correctly, its accuracy is 80%.

Precision
The ratio of true positive predictions to the total predicted positives.

Example: If a model predicts 10 positives and 8 are correct, precision is 80%.

Recall
The ratio of true positive predictions to the total actual positives.

Example: If there are 10 actual positives and the model finds 8, recall is 80%.
