class 9 AI Reflection Project Cycle and Ethics Notes
2. AI Project Cycle
AI Project Cycle is the step-by-step method used to create an AI solution. It helps in organizing,
planning, and developing AI-based projects. The AI Project Cycle has 5 main stages:
Step 1: Problem Scoping
Understanding and identifying the problem you want to solve using AI. We use the 4Ws:
What is the problem?
Who is facing the problem?
Where is the problem occurring?
Why should we solve it?
Example: A farmer is facing crop damage due to pests.
What: Crop damage
Who: Farmer
Where: In the fields
Why: To protect crops and improve yield
Step 2: Data Acquisition
Collecting data that is related to the problem. Data can be collected through:
Surveys
Interviews
Sensors and IoT devices
Online databases
Images and videos
Example: For pest detection, we collect pictures of healthy and pest-affected plants.
Step 3: Data Exploration
Studying and analyzing the collected data. We clean the data and organize it. Charts, graphs, and visuals
help in understanding patterns.
Example: Using bar graphs to see in which months most crops are damaged.
Step 4: Modeling
This is where the AI system is trained using the data. A model is built to make decisions or predictions.
1
Example: Training a model to recognize pest-infected crops from images.
Step 5: Evaluation
Testing how well the AI model performs. If it gives wrong results, the data or model is improved.
Example: Checking if the model can correctly identify pest attacks in new images.
🔹 3. 4W Problem Canvas
The 4W Problem Canvas is a tool to help students and developers understand the problem in detail. It is
used during Problem Scoping.
W Meaning Example
Who Who is affected? Farmers
What What is the issue? Crop damage
Where Where does it happen? Fields/Farms
Why Why solve it? To increase crop yield
🔹 5. Domains of AI
AI is used in many fields. These are called AI Domains.
✅ Data Science
This domain deals with collecting, analyzing, and using data to make decisions.
Example: Online shopping sites recommend products based on your past purchases.
✅ Computer Vision
AI systems that can understand images and videos.
Example: Mobile cameras detect your face to unlock the phone.
✅ Natural Language Processing (NLP)
AI systems that understand human language (text or voice).
Example: Google Assistant answering questions in English or Hindi.

🔹 7. Deep Learning
Deep Learning is an advanced form of Machine Learning. It uses artificial neural networks (just like
human brain) to process information. It is useful for very complex tasks.
Example: Google Translate changes English to Hindi using deep learning models.
🔹 8. AI Ethics
AI Ethics means making sure that AI is used in a safe, fair, and responsible way.
Important Principles:
Fairness: AI should not be biased.
Privacy: Personal data must be protected.
Transparency: People should know how AI makes decisions.
Accountability: Someone must take responsibility if AI causes harm.
Example: An AI camera should recognize all faces, not just fair-skinned ones.
🔹 9. AI Bias
Bias happens when AI gives unfair results. It is caused when the training data is not balanced or is
incorrect.
Example: If an AI used for hiring is trained on data with more male employees, it may prefer males and
reject females.
🔹 10. AI Access
AI tools should be accessible to everyone, not just to rich people or big cities.
Example: Giving AI-powered crop monitoring tools to farmers in rural areas.
