Introduction Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In this article, we’ll describe supervised learning, one of the most important branches of machine learning and a key technique for getting machines to learn from examples and data. We’ll cover: Supervised learning is one […]

Introduction In this article, we’ll talk about what reinforcement learning is and why it’s important to machine learning. We’ll also discuss how reinforcement learning works with a simple chess example. Reinforcement learning is a form of machine learning in which algorithms learn from experience. Reinforcement learning is a form of […]

Introduction Blockchain technology is a decentralized, public ledger that records cryptocurrency transactions. It allows for peer-to-peer data sharing, meaning that no central entity has control over the data stored on it. A blockchain is often described as being like an online spreadsheet; however, it’s much more than that. There are […]

Introduction In the past decade, we’ve seen an explosion of the Internet of Things (IoT) in our homes, offices, and public spaces. From smartwatches to smart homes, from sensors on roadways to artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms that make sense of all that data—the IoT is here. However, as more devices […]

Introduction Augmented reality has the potential to transform many industries and professions. The technology has been around for decades, but it’s only recently that it’s become widely available at an affordable price point. Augmented reality is a technology that overlays virtual objects onto the real world using special glasses or […]
