Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs)
Computational models inspired by the human brain, used in AI to approximate functions and patterns. Example: Image recognition systems.
Reinforcement Learning
An area of machine learning where an agent learns to make decisions by taking actions in an environment to achieve maximum cumulative reward. Example: A robotics system that learns to navigate obstacles.
Symbolic AI
AI that revolves around ideas that are defined and manipulated as symbols—entities that represent something else. Example: Expert System rules encoding medical knowledge.
Supervised Learning
A type of machine learning where the model is trained on labeled data. Example: Spam filter trained to recognize spam emails from a labeled dataset.
Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs)
A class of neural networks where connections between nodes form a directed graph along a temporal sequence, allowing it to exhibit temporal dynamic behavior. Example: Text generation.
Adversarial Networks
AI models that involve networks competing against each other, typically a generator and a discriminator. Example: Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for creating realistic images.
Natural Language Generation (NLG)
The subfield of AI which produces written or spoken narrative from a data source. Example: A system that generates weather reports from meteorological data.
Deep Learning
A class of machine learning utilizing deep neural networks with multiple layers. Example: Google's AlphaGo.
Decision Trees
Predictive models that map observations about an item to conclusions about the item's target value using a tree-like structure. Example: Credit risk assessment.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)
A deep learning algorithm which can take in an input image, assign importance to aspects (objects) in the image, and be able to differentiate one from the other. Example: Handwriting recognition.
Cognitive Computing
Systems that mimic human thought processes in a computerized model, aiming to help in decision-making. Example: IBM's Watson participating in the game show Jeopardy!.
Genetic Algorithms
Search heuristics inspired by the process of natural selection to generate solutions to optimization and search problems. Example: Evolving neural network structures.
Computer Vision
Field of AI that enables computers to interpret and analyze visual information from the world. Example: Autonomous vehicle navigation.
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
The field of AI focused on the interaction between computers and human languages. Example: Virtual assistants like Siri or Alexa.
Semi-supervised Learning
A machine learning approach involving a combination of a small amount of labeled and a large amount of unlabeled data during training. Example: Enhancing speech recognition models with limited transcribed audio data.
Bayesian Networks
Graphical models that represent the probabilistic relationships among a set of variables. Example: Medical diagnosis systems.
Logic Programming
A programming paradigm where program statements express facts and rules about problems within a system of formal logic. Example: Prolog used for creating an AI agent.
Support Vector Machines (SVM)
Supervised learning models used for classification and regression tasks by finding the best hyperplane that separates data points of different classes. Example: Spam detection in emails.
Random Forests
An ensemble learning method involving a multitude of decision trees, improving prediction accuracy. Example: Stock market behavior prediction.
Heuristic Search
Search strategies using domain knowledge to find solutions more efficiently than classic methods. Example: A* algorithm for pathfinding in games.
Expert Systems
Computer systems that emulate the decision-making ability of a human expert by following a set of rules. Example: Medical diagnosis assistant.
Planning
AI technique that involves finding a sequence of actions that leads from the initial state to the desired goal state. Example: Path planning for autonomous robots.
Reinforcement Learning
An area of machine learning where an agent learns to make decisions by taking actions in an environment to achieve maximum cumulative reward. Example: A chess-playing algorithm.
Transfer Learning
A technique where a model developed for a task is reused as the starting point for a model on a second task. Example: Pre-trained image recognition models used for new specific tasks.
Automated Reasoning
An area in AI and cognitive computing that's concerned with the study and development of algorithms and software that reason automatically. Example: Solving geometry problems.
Fuzzy Logic
A form of many-valued logic dealing with reasoning that is approximate rather than fixed and exact. Example: Climate control systems.
Intelligent Agents
Systems that perceive their environment and take actions to maximize their chances of success at some goal. Example: Roomba vacuum cleaner.
Machine Learning
A subset of AI that involves algorithms allowing computers to learn from data and improve over time. Example: A recommendation system on a streaming service.
Unsupervised Learning
Machine learning using information that is neither classified nor labeled, and allowing the algorithm to act on that information without guidance. Example: Grouping customers in market segmentation.
Knowledge Representation
Ways in which intelligent agents can model the world to make decisions or perform tasks. Example: Ontologies in semantic web applications.
