This article delves into the fundamental concepts of machine learning, differentiating between traditional and modern approaches. It outlines the three core pillars of ML: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning. The piece also details dataset architecture, including target variable types (regression and classification), class distributions (balanced vs. imbalanced), and cardinality types (binary vs. multi-class). Finally, it begins an exploration of algorithm types, focusing on tree-based models like Decision Trees and Random Forests, and their splitting criteria such as Gini Impurity and Entropy. AI
