Important Points and Definitions

 Artificial Intelligence (AI): When a machine possesses the

ability to mimic human traits, i.e., make decisions, predict the
future, learn and improve on its own, it is said to have artificial
intelligence. In other words, a machine is artificially intelligent
when it can accomplish tasks by itself - collect data, understand
it, analyze it, learn from it, and improve itself. AI is a form of
intelligence, a type of technology, and a field of study. Its core
idea is to build machines and algorithms capable of performing
computational tasks that would otherwise require human-like
brain functions.
o Key Characteristics of an Artificially Intelligent
Machine: Mimics human intelligence, can solve real-
world problems, improves on its own from past
experiences, and can predict and make decisions on its
own.
o How to make a machine intelligent: Data + Algorithm =
AI Machine.
 Three Domains of AI: AI can be divided into different domains
based on the type of data they process.
o Computer Vision (CV): An AI domain that works with
videos and images, enabling machines to interpret and
understand visual information.
o Natural Language Processing (NLP): An AI domain
focused on textual data, enabling machines to comprehend,
generate, and manipulate human language.
o Data for AI / Statistical Data: Refers to statistical
techniques to analyze, interpret, and draw insights from
numerical/tabular data.
 AI Project Cycle: A 6-step process which aids in problem-
solving using Artificial Intelligence.
o Six Steps: Problem Scoping, Data Acquisition, Data
Exploration, Modeling, Evaluation, Deployment.

 Problem Scoping
  This is the initial and crucial stage where the problem to be
solved using AI is clearly defined. It involves understanding the
context of the problem and identifying the stakeholders. The
"4Ws Problem Canvas" (Who, What, Where, Why) is used to
thoroughly analyze the problem and set a clear goal for the AI
project.

 Data Acquisition

 Once the problem is scoped, this stage focuses on gathering

relevant and authentic data. Data is the foundation of any AI
project, and it needs to be reliable and appropriate for the
problem statement. Various methods like surveys, web scraping,
sensors, cameras, and observations are used to collect data. The
data collected is categorized into "Training Data" (used to train
the AI model) and "Testing Data" (used to evaluate the trained
model).

 Data Exploration

 In this stage, the acquired data is analyzed and visualized to

uncover patterns, trends, and relationships. Data, especially in
its raw form, can be complex. Visualizing it through various
graphical representations (like bar charts, line graphs, pie charts,
scatter plots) makes it more understandable for humans and
helps in strategizing for the subsequent modeling stage.

 Modeling

 This stage involves developing or selecting appropriate AI

models (algorithms) to address the defined problem. It's where
the machine learns from the data. AI models can generally be
classified into two approaches:
o Rule-Based Approach: The machine follows predefined
rules or instructions provided by the developer. The
learning is static.
o Learning-Based Approach: The machine learns by itself
from the data, designing its own algorithms and adapting
to changes in the data. This includes Machine Learning
 (ML) and Deep Learning (DL), where DL is a subset of
ML and ML is a subset of AI.

 Evaluation

 After the model is built and trained, it needs to be rigorously

tested to assess its efficiency and performance. This stage
involves feeding the model with "Testing Data" (data it hasn't
seen before) and comparing its predictions with the actual
outcomes. Terminologies like True Positive and False Positive
are used to understand the model's accuracy. The goal is to fine-
tune the model for the best possible performance.

 Deployment

 This is the final stage where the developed and evaluated AI

model or solution is implemented in a real-world scenario. It
involves making the solution ready for use by the intended
users, such as integrating it into mobile apps, websites, or
existing systems. Monitoring and maintenance are also crucial
aspects of this stage to ensure the solution continues to perform
effectively.

4Ws Problem Canvas:

1. Who?: Who are the stakeholders? What do we know about

them?
2. What?: What is the problem? How do you know it is a problem
(evidence)?
3. Where?: What is the context/situation the stakeholders
experience this problem? Where is the problem located?
4. Why?: What would hold value for the stakeholders? How will
the solution improve their situation?
5.  Machine Learning (ML): Enables machines to improve at
tasks with experience. The machine learns from its mistakes and
improvises itself using its own experiences.
6.  Deep Learning (DL): Enables software to train itself to
perform tasks with vast amounts of data. It is the most advanced
 form of Artificial Intelligence out of AI, ML, and DL. It is a
subset of Machine Learning.
7.  Relationship between AI, ML, DL: Artificial Intelligence is
the umbrella terminology which covers Machine Learning and
Deep Learning, with Deep Learning being a subset of Machine
Learning.
8.  Rule-based approach: Generally based on the data and rules
fed to the machine, where the machine reacts accordingly to
deliver the desired output.
9.  Learning-based approach: The machine is fed with data
and the desired output, to which the machine designs its own
algorithm (or set of rules) to match the data to the desired output
fed into the machine

 Data Literacy: Cultivating Data Literacy means acquiring,

developing, and improving data literacy skills. It provides
guidance on using data efficiently and with all levels of
awareness.
 Data Privacy: Involves rules to keep individual and private data
safe. Considerations include whether AI collects personal data,
what it does with the data, if it informs users about data
collection, and if it ensures or compromises safety.
 Data Security: The practice of protecting digital information
from unauthorized access, corruption, or theft throughout its
entire lifecycle.
 AI Bias: Partiality or preference for one over the other, often
coming from the collected data, which then appears in the
results. Considerations include ensuring data equally represents
all sections of included populations, preventing AI from
discriminating, and ensuring AI does not exclude people.
 Human Rights in AI: When building AI solutions, it's crucial
to ensure they follow human rights. This includes ensuring AI
does not take away freedom, discriminate against people, or
deprive people of jobs.
 Generative AI: (Introduced at page 122, so basic definition
included) A type of AI that can create new content, such as
images or text. Ethical considerations include potential for fake
 news/deepfakes, bias amplification, misinformation spread, and
privacy breaches (generating sensitive personal information).

From Page 46: Revision Time (on Data Exploration)

1. What is the significance of Data Exploration after you have

acquired the data for the problem scoped? Explain with
examples.
o Answer: Data exploration is significant because it allows
students to explore different types of graphical
representations and learn how to visualize the data they
have. Its primary purpose is to discover patterns and
insights in data. For example, by visualizing data features
in various types of graphs, one can observe trends and
patterns.
2. What do you think is the relevance of Data Visualization in
AI?
o Answer: Data visualization is crucial in AI as it helps
students find trends and patterns from the data they
explore. It makes complex AI concepts accessible and
helps in developing strategies for AI projects.

common types are generally taught in data visualization)
Bar Graph, Line Graph, Pie Chart, Scatter Plot,
Histograms.
4. How is Data Exploration different from Data Acquisition?
o Answer:
 Data Acquisition: Focuses on learning various ways

 Data Exploration: Focuses on analysing and
visualizing the acquired data using different types of
graphs to find trends and patterns.
