Top 5 Machine Learning Introduction Slides for Beginners

In this post, you will get to know a list of introduction slides (ppt) for machine learning. These slides could help you understand different types of machine learning algorithms with detailed examples. One or more slides from the following list could be used for making presentations on machine learning. If you are looking out for topics to be included in the machine learning course for your internal training purpose in your organization, the details presented below might turn out to be very helpful. If you are starting on learning data science, these could be good slides.

Machine Learning Overview

Machine Learning: An Overview: The slides present introduction to machine learning along with some of the following:

1. Different types of learning (supervised, unsupervised, reinforcement)
2. Dimensions of a learning system (different types of feedback, representation, use of knowledge)
3. Supervised learning algorithms such as Decision tree, neural network, support vector machines (SVM), Bayesian network learning, nearest neighbor models
4. Reinforcement learning
5. Unsupervised learning

Introduction to Supervised Learning

These are some supervised machine learning slides describing concepts of supervised learning (a type of machine learning) with examples. The following are covered in the slides:

1. What is meant by “Learning”?
2. Difference between supervised and unsupervised learning
3. Different machine learning algorithms for supervised learning
   1. Decision tree (information gain theory, entropy, handling overfitting, and other issues)
   2. Model evaluation methods (hold-out, n-fold cross-validation, Leave-one-out cross-validation, validation set)
   3. Classification measures (precision, recall, F1 score, ROC curve, Sensitivity, Specificity, AUC, Scoring and ranking technique, ranking and lift analysis)
   4. Naive Bayes
   5. Support vector machines
   6. K-nearest neighbors
