Data Science

A multidisciplinary field combining statistics, mathematics, and computer science to extract insights from data.

Applications of Data Science

- Healthcare: Disease prediction, drug discovery, personalized treatment plans.

- Finance: Fraud detection, risk management, stock market prediction.

- Retail: Customer segmentation, recommendation systems, inventory optimization.

- Transportation: Route optimization, autonomous vehicles, traffic forecasting.

- Social Media: Sentiment analysis, targeted advertising, content personalization.

Computer Vision

A subfield of AI focused on enabling computers to interpret and process visual data like images and videos.

- Key Techniques:

- Image Classification

- Object Detection

- Image Segmentation

- Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Applications of Computer Vision

- Healthcare: Analyzing medical scans (e.g., X-rays, MRIs), detecting diseases.

- Retail: Automated checkout systems, shelf monitoring, customer behavior analysis.

- Automotive: Self-driving cars for obstacle detection and navigation.

- Security: Surveillance, facial recognition, and anomaly detection.

Ethical Implications of Using Facial Recognition Technology

- Privacy Concerns: Unconsented collection of biometric data.

- Bias: Disproportionate inaccuracies for certain demographics, leading to discrimination.

- Surveillance Overreach: Potential misuse in public spaces, impacting civil liberties.

- Regulation Needs: Calls for transparency, accountability, and ethical guidelines.

Key Concepts in Computer Vision


1. Classification:

- Identifies the overall category of an image (e.g., cat or dog).

- Focuses on assigning a single label to the image.

2. Classification + Localization:

- Not only classifies the image but also provides the spatial location of the classified object using bounding boxes.

3. Object Detection:

- Identifies and locates multiple objects within an image.

- Provides bounding boxes for each detected object (e.g., cars, people).

4. Instance Segmentation:

- Goes beyond object detection by outlining the exact shape of each detected object.

- Separates overlapping objects within the same class.

How Machine Learning Improves Computer Vision Accuracy:

- Learning Complex Patterns: ML models, especially deep learning, can detect intricate visual features.

- Continuous Improvement: With more data, models adapt to handle edge cases like overlapping objects or low-
light images.

- Applications: Self-driving cars, medical imaging, and video surveillance.

NLP enables computers to understand, interpret, and respond to human language in text or speech.

- Key Processes: Sentence segmentation, tokenization, parsing, sentiment analysis, and machine translation.

Applications:

- Speech-to-Text: Converting spoken language into written text.

- Chatbots: Automating customer support.

- Translation: Converting text between languages.

- Sentiment Analysis: Determining emotions expressed in text.

Key Concepts in NLP:

1. Sentence Segmentation: Splitting text into meaningful sentences for processing.


2. Tokenization: Breaking sentences into words or subwords for analysis.

3. Stemming: Reducing words to their root forms by removing affixes (e.g., "running" → "run").

4. Lemmatization: Transforming words to their dictionary base form considering context (e.g., "better" → "good").

Challenges in NLP:

1. Ambiguity: Words may have multiple meanings depending on context.

2. Context Understanding: Difficulty interpreting idioms, sarcasm, or cultural references.

3. Language Variability: Handling diverse languages, dialects, and informal text formats.

- Specific Challenge:

- Contextual Understanding: Sarcasm or figurative speech, such as "That’s just great!" in a negative scenario, is
hard for NLP to process accurately, leading to incorrect sentiment analysis.

OCR (Optical Character Recognition):

- Purpose: Converts images of printed or handwritten text into editable and searchable formats.

- Applications: Digitizing books, automating data entry, and improving accessibility for visually impaired users.

Advanced NLP Concepts

How Word Embedding Improves NLP Accuracy:

- Semantic Understanding: Word embeddings map words into a continuous vector space, capturing meanings and
relationships (e.g., "king" - "man" + "woman" ≈ "queen").

- Context Representation: Helps models understand similarity and nuance between words.

Three Main Challenges in NLP Systems:

1. Data Sparsity: Limited training data for rare languages or topics.

2. Grammar Variability: Complex sentence structures and evolving slang.

3. Bias: Datasets may reflect societal biases, leading to skewed model predictions.
