Machine Learning from Scratch
Building Machine Learning Algorithms from First Principles
Machine Learning from Scratch
Machine Learning from scratch refers to the process of building machine learning algorithms and models without relying on high-level libraries or pre-built frameworks like TensorFlow or scikit-learn. This approach involves understanding the foundational concepts of machine learning, such as linear algebra, probability, and statistics, and implementing algorithms directly using programming languages such as Python or R. By coding algorithms like linear regression, decision trees, or neural networks from the ground up, practitioners gain deeper insights into their mechanics, strengths, limitations, and the intricacies of the training process, such as optimization and model evaluation. This hands-on experience fosters a more profound comprehension of how these models work and enables tailored solutions for specific problems, although it requires more effort compared to using established libraries.
