02-Machine Learning Flashcards
How do machines learn
Machines learn from data
What is Regression
Regression is a form of Machine Learning that predicts a numeric LABEL based on an item’s FEATURES
What type of Machine Learning technique is Regression
Regression is Supervised Machine Learning
What is Supervised Learning
Technique in which you train a model using data that includes both FEATURES and known values for the LABEL, so that the model learns to FIT the FEATURE combinations to the LABEL
What is Classification
Classification is a form of Machine Learning that predicts which category, or class an item belongs to
What type of Machine Learning technique is Classification
Classification is Supervised Machine Learning
What is Clustering
Clustering is a form of Machine Learning that is used to GROUP SIMILAR ITEMS based on their features
What type of Machine Learning technique is Clustering
Clustering is Unsupervised Machine Learning
What is Unsupervised Machine Learning
Unsupervised Machine Learning is where you train a model to separate items into clusters based purely on their characteristics, or FEATURES. There is no previously known cluster value (or LABEL) from which to train the model.
What are Azure Machine Learning services
- AUTOMATED machine learning
- Azure Machine Learning DESIGNER
- Data and compute MANAGEMENT
- PIPELINES
What is Automated Machine Learning
Automate Machine Learning ALLOWS NON-EXPERTS to create an effective machine learning model from data very quick
What is Azure Machine Learning designer
Azure Machine Learning designer is a GUI that allows no-code development of machine learning solutions.
The Designer tool in Azure Machine Learning studio allows you to create and run pipelines by using DRAG & DROP INTERFACE to connect modules that define the steps and data flow for the pipeline.
What is Data and Compute management
Data and Compute management is CLOUD-BASED DATA STORAGE AND COMPUTE resources that professional data scientists can use to run data experiment code at scale.
Scale meaning they can run multiple training experiments in parallel while incurring costs only when actually used.
What are Pipelines
Pipelines are MULTI-STEP WORKFLOWS to
PREPARE data,
TRAIN models,
and perform model MANAGEMENT tasks.
Pipelines allow data scientists, software engineers, and IT operations professionals to do the above.
What is Forecasting
Forecasting is Regression with a TIME-SERIES element
What is Azure Machine Learning
Azure Machine Learning is a CLOUD SERVICE that you can use to TRAIN and MANAGE machine learning models.
You need COMPUTE on which to run the training process.
What is a Workspace
Workspace is CREATED IN AZURE SUBSCRIPTION to use Azure Machine Learning.
It allows you to MANAGE data, compute resources, code, models, and other ARTIFACTS related to your machine learning workloads
What are Compute Targets
Compute Targets are cloud-based resources on which you can run MODEL TRAINING and DATA EXPLORATION processes.
What are four types of Compute Resources you can create
- Compute INSTANCES
- Compute CLUSTERS
- INFERENCE Clusters
- ATTACHED Compute
What are Compute Instances
Compute Instances are DEVELOPMENT WORKSTATIONS that data scientists can use to work with data and models
What are Compute Clusters
Compute Clusters are scalable CLUSTERS OF VIRTUAL MACHINES for on-demand processing of experiment code
What are Inference Clusters
Inference Clusters are DEPLOYMENT TARGETS FOR PREDICTIVE SERVICES that use your trained models
What is Attached Compute
Attached Compute LINKS TO EXISTING AZURE COMPUTE RESOURCES, such as Virtual Machines or Azure Databricks clusters
