Machine learning involves developing algorithms that can learn from data to make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed. It works by building a model from example data, known as "training data", in order to recognize patterns and make data-driven predictions or decisions on new data. The key aspects are that the model is able to learn independently from its training data, and improve its predictions over time as it receives more data, without needing to be reprogrammed. Machine learning algorithms build models by detecting patterns in large amounts of data that can be used to make predictions.

In the rapidly evolving field of machine learning (ML), the focus is often placed on developing sophisticated algorithms and models that can learn patterns, make predictions, and generate insights from data. However, one of the most critical challenges in building effective machine learning systems lies in ensuring the quality of the data used for training, testing, and validating these models. Data quality directly influences the model's performance, accuracy, and ability to generalize to unseen examples. Unfortunately, in real-world applications, data is rarely perfect, and it is often riddled with various types of errors that can lead to misleading conclusions, flawed predictions, and potentially harmful outcomes. These errors in experimental observations, also referred to as data errors or measurement errors, can significantly compromise the effectiveness of machine learning systems. The sources of these errors are diverse, ranging from technical failures, such as malfunctioning sensors or corrupted datasets, to human errors in data collection, labeling, or interpretation. Furthermore, errors may emerge during the data preprocessing stages, such as incorrect normalization, improper handling of missing data, or the introduction of noise through faulty sampling techniques. These errors can manifest in several ways, including outliers, missing values, mislabeled instances, noisy data, or data imbalances, each of which can influence how well a machine learning model performs. Understanding the nature of these errors and developing strategies to mitigate their impact is crucial for building robust and reliable machine learning models that can operate in real-world environments. Moreover, the impact of errors is not only a technical issue; it also raises significant ethical concerns, particularly when the models are used to inform high-stakes decisions, such as in healthcare, criminal justice, or finance. If errors are not properly addressed, models may inadvertently perpetuate biases, amplify inequalities, or produce inaccurate predictions that negatively affect individuals and communities. Therefore, a thorough understanding of errors in experimental observations is essential for improving the reliability, fairness, and ethical standards of machine learning applications. This introductory discussion provides the foundation for exploring the various types of errors that arise in machine learning datasets, examining their origins, their effects on model performance, and the various methods and techniques available for detecting, correcting, and mitigating these errors. By delving into the challenges posed by errors in experimental observations, we aim to provide a comprehensive framework for addressing data quality issues in machine learning and to highlight the importance of maintaining data integrity in the development and deployment of machine learning systems. This exploration of errors will also touch upon the broader implications for research

It discusses formal definitions of machine learning, the differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, examples of machine learning applications, and evaluation metrics for predictive models like lift, sensitivity, and accuracy. Key machine learning algorithms mentioned include logistic regression and different types of modeling. The presentation provides an overview of concepts in machine learning and predictive analytics.
Machine learning involves using data to allow computers to learn without being explicitly programmed. There are three main types of machine learning problems: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. The typical machine learning process involves five steps: 1) data gathering, 2) data preprocessing, 3) feature engineering, 4) algorithm selection and training, and 5) making predictions. Generalization is an important concept that relates to how well a model trained on one dataset can predict outcomes on an unseen dataset. Both underfitting and overfitting can lead to poor generalization by introducing bias or variance errors.

Machine learning allows computers to learn without explicit programming by analyzing data to recognize patterns and make predictions. It can be supervised, learning from labeled examples to classify new data, or unsupervised, discovering hidden patterns in unlabeled data through clustering. Key aspects include feature representation, distance metrics to compare examples, and evaluation methods like measuring error on test data to avoid overfitting to the training data.
Machine learning involves using data and algorithms to enable computers to learn without being explicitly programmed. There are three main types of machine learning problems: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. The machine learning process typically involves 5 steps: data gathering, data preprocessing, feature engineering, algorithm selection and training, and making predictions. Generalization is important in machine learning and involves balancing bias and variance - models with high bias may underfit while those with high variance may overfit.
Machine learning is a field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. There are three main types of machine learning: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. Supervised learning uses labeled training data to infer a function that maps inputs to outputs, unsupervised learning looks for hidden patterns in unlabeled data, and reinforcement learning allows an agent to learn from interaction with an environment through trial-and-error using feedback in the form of rewards. Some common machine learning algorithms include support vector machines, discriminant analysis, naive Bayes classification, and k-means clustering.
This document discusses various ensemble machine learning algorithms including bagging, boosting, and random forests. It explains that ensemble approaches average the predictions of multiple models to improve performance over a single model. Bagging trains models on random subsets of data and averages predictions. Random forests build on bagging by using random subsets of features to de-correlate trees. Boosting iteratively trains weak learners on weighted versions of the data that focus on previously misclassified examples. The document provides examples and comparisons of these ensemble techniques.

1. The document discusses designing code for testability. It emphasizes dependency injection and mocking to easily instantiate classes and invoke methods during testing without dependencies.
2. It also discusses avoiding private and static methods when possible since they cannot be overridden or replaced, making the code harder to test. Following good design practices like the SOLID principles leads to more testable code.
3. The document provides examples of refactoring code to make it more testable through dependency injection and interfaces. This allows dependencies to be mocked or stubbed during testing and makes the code easier to extend.
Mutation testing involves deliberately injecting faults into a program and running test cases to determine if they can detect the faults. It is a technique for evaluating test suite quality. Key aspects include generating mutant programs by making small syntactic changes to the original, running test cases against mutants, and calculating a mutation score based on the percentage of mutants detected. While useful for evaluation, mutation testing has limitations such as requiring significant computing resources and not accounting for equivalent or trivial mutants.

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are a subset of machine learning algorithms inspired by the human brain. ANNs consist of interconnected artificial neurons that can learn complex patterns from data. The document introduces ANNs and perceptrons, the simplest type of ANN for binary classification. It discusses how perceptrons use weighted inputs and an activation function to make predictions. The perceptron learning rule is then explained, showing how weights are updated during training to minimize errors by calculating delta weights through gradient descent. This allows perceptrons to learn logical functions like AND, OR, and NOT from examples.
The document describes a scenario involving four men sentenced to death who must guess the color of their hats to survive. They are lined up without being able to see each other's hats or communicate. Person D does not answer in the first minute, allowing person C to deduce that D saw hats of two different colors in front of him. Therefore, if person B has a white hat, person C must have a black hat, and vice versa. This allows one of them to correctly guess the color of their hat and survive.

Software has bugs and it seems to be unavoidable. To find them we often use code reviews and software testing. However, test an application and find no bugs does not mean the application is correct. Model checking is an automatic technique that can guarantee the absence of bugs (i.e. the correctness of a system) given a formal specification. This presentation shows the results of an empirical study on Bounded Model Checking in security context to verify its ability in identifying vulnerable code regions where multiple vulnerabilities in the code can affect each other in their detection.

Given a training set of labeled examples 𝑥1, 𝑦1 , … , 𝑥𝑛, 𝑦𝑛 estimate the
prediction function f by minimizing the prediction error on the training set
Testing
Apply f to a never before seen test example x and output the predicted value
y=f(x)

28. How do we choose training and test set?
Two most common techniques are percentile sampling
ad k-folds cross-validation
29. Percentile sampling
Divide the dataset between X% to
be used for training and Y% to be
used for prediction where X>>Y
(e.g., 70/30)
Training observation
Testing observation
30. K-folds cross-validation
Randomly divide dataset into k “folds” then
randomly select one to be used as testing data.
Circularly select another one, selecting all of them
at least once, calculate the average error rate of
estimations
3 folds

32. In summary
ML means learning from the past to predict the future
MACHINES NEED TO MAKE LESS ERROR IN PREDICTION (ERROR IS EVALUATED WITH
STATITSICAL INDEXES AS F-MEASURE)
At least 3 classes of ML exist
SUPERVISED LEARNING
UNSUPERVISED LEARNING
REINFORCEMENT LEARNING
