25 | "Machine Learning, a subset of Artificial Intelligence, has its roots dating back to the 1950s. In 1952, Arthur Samuel coined the term \"Machine Learning\" while working on a checkers-playing program at IBM. He defined it as the \"field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed.\" In the following decades, researchers explored various approaches to Machine Learning, such as the Perceptron algorithm (1957) and the Nearest Neighbor algorithm (1967). However, it wasn't until the 1990s that Machine Learning gained significant traction, thanks to the advent of more powerful computers and the availability of larger datasets. Since then, Machine Learning has experienced rapid growth and has become an integral part of our daily lives.\n"

As it processes more emails, the algorithm becomes better at accurately classifying new incoming emails as spam or not spam.\n",

By feeding the model a vast collection of labeled images (e.g., images tagged with \"cat,\" \"dog,\" or \"car\"), it learns to identify distinctive features and patterns associated with each label. After training, the model can accurately classify new, unseen images into the appropriate categories.\n",

It then uses this information to suggest content, products, or services that the user is likely to enjoy, thus enhancing their experience and engagement.\n",
184 | "\n",
185 | "4. Fraud detection: Machine Learning is used in the financial industry to detect fraudulent transactions. By training on a dataset of historical transactions labeled as fraudulent or legitimate, the algorithm learns to identify patterns and anomalies associated with fraud. When a new transaction is processed, the model can flag it as potentially fraudulent if it exhibits similar characteristics to the fraudulent transactions it has learned from.\n"

In the game, the player controls the character Mario, navigating through various levels and obstacles to reach the end goal. Throughout the journey, Mario encounters both positive and negative reinforcements. Positive reinforcements include collecting coins, power-ups, and successfully completing levels, which reward the player with points, extra lives, and a sense of accomplishment. On the other hand, negative reinforcements, such as falling into pits or being hit by enemies, result in a loss of lives or a restart from the last checkpoint. These reinforcements shape the player's behavior, encouraging them to learn from their mistakes, develop better strategies, and adapt their gameplay to maximize rewards while minimizing punishments. As the player progresses through the game, they continuously learn and improve their skills based on the feedback they receive, demonstrating the core principles of reinforcement learning."
