But, beyond being given the data, how is it trained exactly? How is it figuring out if two pieces of data have a relationship? How does it then generalize to future situations? That’s exactly what we’ll be talking about today.

  • Episode #3: I Speak For the (Decision) Trees
    2023/10/23
    We’ve talked pretty extensively about what machine learning is in these past few episodes. We’ve reviewed the use cases of machine learning, the awesome things it can do, and some of its limitations. But, I want to give us a deep dive into decision trees - which serve as the basis of how many machine learning models make decisions. We’ll also explore a very interesting question - how does a machine brain compare to a human brain?
