Project Cycle is a step-by-step process to solve problems using proven

scientific methods and drawing inferences about them.

Components of the project cycle are the steps that contribute to completing
the Project. The Components of AI Project Cycle are:-

Problem Scoping - Understanding the problem

Data Acquisition - Collecting accurate and reliable data
Data Exploration - Arranging the data uniformly,Creating charts
Modelling - Creating Models from the data
Evaluation - Evaluating the project

Problem Scoping refers to

understanding a problem,
finding out various factors which
affect the problem, define the
goal or aim of the project.
 3

Sustainable Development: To Develop for the present without exploiting the

resources of the future.
17 goals announced by United Nations.
Aim to achieve them by 2030.
Pledge taken by all the member nations of the UN.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals,
were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015 as a universal call to
action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace
and prosperity

The 4W’s of Problem Scoping are Who, What, Where, and Why. This Ws
helps in identifying and understanding the problem in a better and efficient
manner.

Who - “Who” part helps us in comprehending and categorizing who all

are affected directly and indirectly with the problem and who are called the
Stake Holders

What - “What” part helps us in understanding and identifying the nature

of the problem and under this block, you also gather evidence to prove
that the problem you have selected exists.

Where - "Where” does the problem arise, situation, context, and location.

Why - “Why” is the given problem worth solving.

The Problem Statement Template helps us to summarize all the key points into
one single template.

So that in the future, whenever there is a need to look back at the basis of the
problem, we can take a look at the Problem Statement Template and
understand its key elements of it.

2 Types of Data Sets

The process of collecting accurate and reliable data to work with.

Data features ⚆_⚆ Refer to the type of data you want to collect. It must be flawless.
→

Ex: salary amount, increment percentage, increment period, bonus, etc.

Big Data ⚆_⚆

It includes data with sizes that exceed the
capacity of traditional software to process
within an acceptable time and value.

The main focus is on unstructured type of Amount of

Web Scraping Sensors

Web Scraping means collecting data Sensors are very Important but
from web using some technologies. very simple to understand.
We use it for monitoring prices, Sensors are the part of IoT
news and etc. (Internet of things)
Example: Web Scrapping. using Sensers collect the physical

requests and tells the system about
requests and gives the response. Example, a census survey for
analyzing the population.
Ex: Twitter API, Google Search API
 7

Data Exploration is the process of arranging the gathered data uniformly for a
better understanding. Data can be arranged in the form of a table, plotting a
chart, or making a database.
To analyse the data, you need to visualise it in some user-friendly format so
that you can:
Quickly get a sense of the trends, relationships and patterns
Define strategy for which model to use at a later stage
Communicate the same to others effectively

The tools used to visualise the acquired data are known as data visualisation
or exploration tools.

Few data visualisation tools are: Google Charts, Tableau, Fusion Charts,
Highcharts

Rule Based Approach
→ 2 ways/Approaches
Learning Based Approach

Modelling is the process in which different models based on the visualized

data can be created and even checked for the advantages and disadvantages
of the model.

Rule Based Approach Refers to the AI modelling where the relationship

or patterns in data are defined by the developer.
That means the machine works on the rules and information given by the
developer and performs the task accordingly.
Decision Tree : ROOT – DECISION NODE – LEAF NODE – SUBTREE - PRUNING

Ex: You trained your model with 100 images of apples and bananas. Now If you test
it by showing an apple, it will figure out and tell if it's an apple or not. Here Labeled
images of apple and banana were fed, due to which the model could detect the fruit.

*Labeled Images: Simply, when the model is told about what the image is.

Dataset is a collection of related sets of information that is composed of

separate elements but can be manipulated by a computer as a unit.

Training Data – A subset required

to train the model. Eg pics of apples &
bananas.
Testing Data – A subset required
while testing the trained the model
 9

The learning-Based Approach is based on a Machine learning experience with the

data fed.

Machine Learning (ML)

Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides
machines the ability to learn automatically and improve from experience
without being programmed for it.

3 types of Machine Learning:-

Supervised Learning
Unsupervised Learning
Semi-supervised or
Reinforcement Learning
 10
Classification
→ 2 Categories
Regression
Supervised learning is where a computer algorithm is trained on input data that
has been labeled for a particular output.

→ Classification
Here, Data is categorized under different labels
according to some parameters given in the input
and then the labels are predicted for the data.

Example: To predict which of them is apple

and banana.

→ Regression
Regression is a type of supervised learning
which is used to predict continuous value.

Example: To predict your next salary, put in the

data of your previous salary, any increments, etc.,
train the model.
Example: Weather Prediction using past data.
Here, the data which has been fed to the machine is continuous.
 11

In terms of machine learning, unsupervised learning is in which a system learns

through data sets created on its own. In this, the training is not labeled.
Important Points:
An unsupervised learning model works on unlabelled dataset.
This means that the data which is fed to the machine is random and there
is a possibility that the person who is training the model does not have
any information regarding it.
The unsupervised learning models are used to identify relationships,
patterns and trends out of the data which is fed into it
What the data is about
It helps the user in understanding
What are the major features identified by
the machine
Example: Suppose a boy sees someone performing tricks with a ball, so he
also learnt the tricks by himself. This is what we call unsupervised learning.

→ Clustering
Its an algorithm which can cluster the unknown
data according to the patterns or trends identified
out of it
The patterns observed can be known to the
developer or it can be unique.

N
 12

→ Dimensionality Reduction:
We can visualize up to 3-Dimensions only.
To reduce the dimensions and still be able to make
sense of the data, we use Dimensionality Reduction.
The ball in our hand is 3-Dimensions. But if we click
its picture, the data transform to 2-D.

Learning through feedback or trial and error method is called Reinforcement

Learning.
The system works on Reward or Penalty policy. In this an agent performs an
action positive or negative, in the environment which is taken as input from the
system, then the system changes the state in the environment and the agent is
provided with a reward or penalty.

Example: A very good example of

these is Vending machines.

Base Training Set Testing Set

Use Used for Training the Model Used for Testing the Model after it is trained

Is a lot bigger than testing data and It is smaller than Training Set and constitutes
Size constitutes about 70% to 80% about 20% to 30%

Evaluation is the process of understanding the reliability of any AI model, based on

outputs by feeding the test data into the model and comparing it with actual answers.
There can be different Evaluation techniques, depending on the type and
purpose of the model.
