 How can a machine learn the rule from data?
 Supervised learning: a teacher provides a category
label or cost for each pattern in the training set.
◦ Classification
 Unsupervised learning: the system forms clusters or
natural groupings of the input patterns (based on
some similarity criteria).
◦ Clustering
 Reinforcement learning: no desired category is given
but the teacher provides feedback to the system such
as the decision is right or wrong.

 Data acquisition and sensing:
◦ Measurements of physical variables.
◦ Important issues: bandwidth, resolution , etc.
 Pre-processing:
◦ Removal of noise in data.
◦ Isolation of patterns of interest from the
background.
 Feature extraction:
◦ Finding a new representation in terms of features.
 Classification
◦ Using features and learned models to assign a
pattern to a category.
 Post-processing
◦ Evaluation of confidence in decisions.

 Features are properties of an object:
◦ Ideally representative of a specific type (i.e. class) of
objects
◦ Compact (memory efficient)
◦ Computationally simple (CPU efficient)
◦ Perceptual relevant (if trying to implement a human
inspired classifier)
