Welcome to Dr. Holz’s beginner-friendly lecture on Machine Learning Classification! This session breaks down essential classification models, practical evaluation methods, and strategies to tackle common challenges. Ideal for students and newcomers eager to start their ML journey! 🚀
📚 What You’ll Learn in This Lecture:
🔍 What is Classification? Explore how classification works.
🗂️ Types of Classification: Discover Binary, Multiclass, Multilabel, and Ordinal classifications, and where to apply each one.
🤖 Core Classification Models:
📊K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN): Learn how to classify based on neighbors and distance metrics.
🌳 Decision Trees: Uncover concepts like Gini impurity, entropy, and ways to avoid overfitting.
📈 Logistic Regression: A straightforward approach for binary outcomes. SVC (Support Vector Classifier): Perfect for handling complex, high-dimensional data.
🔮 Naive Bayes: A fast, probability-based classifier, ideal for text data.
📏 Model Evaluation & Validation: Dive into metrics like Confusion Matrix, Precision, Recall, F1-Score, and AUC to measure your model’s success.
⚠️ Common Challenges in Classification: Tips for handling class imbalance, high-dimensional data, and improving interpretability.
👨💻 Live Coding Demos: See Dr. Holz bring these models to life with Python, using Scikit-Learn and Pandas.
💻 Tools Used: Python, Scikit-Learn, Pandas, Google Colab
