What is Machine Learning?

Machine learning is all around us; on our phones, powering social networks, helping the police and doctors, scientists and mayors. But how does it work? In this animation we take a look at how statistics and computer science can be used to make machines that learn.

Machine learning is an incredibly powerful numerical tool. Man, I love how far we've come technologically!

[@OxfordSparks]

We completely agree @LeiosOs - Kirsty@OxfordSparks

[@kevinfairweather3661]

It could also be our downfall.. !

[@youbtube870]

1:55 they showed the series x before it was announced lmao

[@CromaCampusOfficial]

*Thanks for sharing what is machine learning using such good animation*

[@tkamali4666]

This is the best explanation of machine learning.Thanks🌸

[@adelabu-ghazaleh1228]

You have the best way to describe what Machine Learning is. I was wondering what its real meaning and I then found your answer in video. I recommend all who don't know the meaning to see this video. Thanks Oxford.

[@gigidatta3410]

well explanation. love it

[@kaiserkonok]

Best explanation of machine learning🔥🔥

[@jeff503pdx]

Wow, this little 2min video has explained this so well, ha. Thanks.

[@user-em9mw9ch3y]

Subskriebd. great video. lovely voice, attractive animation.

[@rob-moore]

Great introduction. Question: is it always the case that humans need to input the potential features that are used for classification? For instance, the ML algorithm uses the animal's height, length, and face size as features for classification, with computer vision being used to map images to these features. Do some ML algorithms create these features and features maps automatically, or are these always created outside of the algorithm? PS: What did you use to create this video, it looks great :)

[@OxfordSparks]

Hey Robert, in fact, it is almost always the case in modern computers vision that the features for the classifier are constructed automatically. This is what for example neural networks do (models for deep learning). Although we don't tell it to learn height, length, etc, the features that are learned end up having close correlations with such characteristics, as well as other properties that distinguish cats and dogs that we may not have thought of. This is made possible by providing large amounts of data to the neural network. This type of automated learning from data is what makes machine learning very powerful. Kirsty@OxfordSparks

[@rabbitpiet7182]

Well there is this thing called clustering where groups are made by sorting by characteristics but without given a name to the groups

[@virusmation1527]

Great animation.keep it up.

[@godsharry]

Awesome! Succinct :-) Very effective for a newbie to understand the concept:-)

[@ka39116]

love how you explain about ML

[@ManChoitube]

Thank you especially Korean subtitle which is awesome for Korean Teacher and Student. 한국어 자막 감사드립니다. 최만드림

[@OxfordSparks]

Our pleasure, Man Choi. Enjoy! Kirsty@OxfordSparks

[@ManChoitube]

Yeah!!

[@caesaaar]

Love the art!

[@ericamburroughs]

This video best informs what machine learning is.

[@OxfordSparks]

Thank you!

[@nandakishorereddyappidi3010]

This is a pretty cool video.,Thank you!

[@OxfordSparks]

Ah we think so too Nandy. have you checked out some of our other awesome animations? We launched one about Brain Development in Teenagers recently - let us know what you think: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnq2npeYat-Zn7M Kirsty@OxfordSparks

[@cuddy90210]

Thank you.

[@grimsonforce7504]

Easily the best explanation I just tried watching another video and was confused as hell. This made is so much more simpler. Plus it has dogs!

[@OxfordSparks]

Thank you so much! I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the video and that it was useful. - Charlotte (Oxford Sparks)

[@dmnxexotic0p55]

This channel is so damn underrated!!🙄

[@lifehacks5178]

Could I use this Video on Website? I need your permission.. Thanks

[@1Bee3]

Look in the description where it says license. I don't know if "reuse allowed" includes reuse outside of KZbin, though.

[@captainharloq8054]

I know it's a bit late, but it's a "creative common license" which is "reuse allowed"

[@hemanthraju5132]

greatt😍😍😍😍

[@irumshujah765]

I love the way you explained, plus the diversity :)

[@lugia8888]

Diversity? Come on lol

[@20dlon]

I would like to leave a constructive opinion, in fact, a reflection. Excuse me for my ignorance, but, correct me, please, if I got it wrong. All the videos I saw about the SUPPOSED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE and the SUPPOSED MACHINE LEARNING, including this video, only say what the concept is, and what they (the SUPPOSED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE and the SUPPOSED MACHINE LEARNING) are for, but , do not show how they are produced, that is, it is not shown how these miracles happen. In short: it seems that it is a speculation, or a lie, or an imagination in the minds of those who say that they exist, or just a retransmission of what others say, or a belief. It remains unclear, whether ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE and MACHINE LEARNING, are behaviors that are in the programming algorithm, pre-programmed, or, if they are behaviors that the program does without the algorithm, and that the program would write that algorithm by himself (which would be impossible with today's technology), and would have more lines in the algorithm, or some change in the code (as if it were an invisible hand writing more lines of code or changing the algorithm). They say there is programming involved, but it is unclear, without explanation, if it is already existing programming (and, in this case, there is no machine learning or artificial intelligence); or, if an algorithm appears that was not written by someone. Stay there, the reflection!

Black blunders queen @1:59 ?

[@ahwaliazizi]

Yes it is Leios, you love it but sometimes it makes me afraid...lolx..

[@cellofingers]

AI is already here, and that is not such a bad thing. Can computers become self aware? Yes I think so in the not too distant future.

[@Thabang_Kgatla1]

Who else is watching this video as a part of the University Of Johannesburg's 4IR online course?

[@RoyalBengalCub]

Hello there! We are researchers in human-computer interaction (HCI) looking for people who have taken an initiative to recently learn Machine Learning on their own, for career, course or curiosity. Would you mind telling us here (www.surveymonkey.ca/r/SelfLearning_ML) about your experiences and any difficulties you faced while self-teaching ML and how you overcame them. There is also a chance to win $50 giftcard. You can help this project by taking out 5-10 minutes to participate in our study. For more details, see here: www.surveymonkey.ca/r/SelfLearning_ML Please share this request with your colleagues or friends who fit this description. People from any major/background may participate. The survey will be open until July 23, 2020.

[@sandunakalanka112]

Great video but I cannot understand why people get offended about the woman in Hijab. *sigh*

erm what the sigma

[@theodoraloufardaki789]

all good, except "When we' re born we know almost nothing and..."' not true.

[@ParasFtl]

Hijab dafq?

[@ParasFtl]

thats disgusting

[@anastasia.2007.]

+MysterieusM Women wearing the hijab in some Muslin countries are not even allowed to drive a car. I wonder if the same people who think it's ok for a woman to wear a hijab also find it appropriate to put a hijab on a scientist.

[@ilgfalam]

Paras, u r disgusting so is india

[@SeekerOfTruth]

we're in 2019 now and your little brain refuses the Freedom of clothing and that simply mean any person can wear anything that he like and want, in addition of that, that is not your business what Muslim women wear or do. Be civilized and not backward or racist .

[@yogeshinawate]

Normally every woman wears hijab in Oxford, so they have shown it. You can clearly see Oxford written behind her.

[@caioraposo2944]

Boa tarde amigão n gostei do conteúdo ....MELHORAR PFV !!

[@PatricioHondagneuRoig]

Okay, it's pretty controversial to make a female scientist cartoon wear a hijab. In one hand, women are independent individuals same as men and can wear whatever they want, in principle; in the other hand, the hijab is a symbol of how that principle doesn't apply everywhere as there are many places where not wearing a hijab or even more oppressive covers can get women punished.

[@peterg4130]

You must be amazing to hang out with at parties

[@AberrantAberrant]

shut the fuck up moron

[@UnderscoreZeroLP]

hmm, i didn't even notice it. shows that somebody still has prejudices to get ovei

[@chilldude1337]

You said it yourself. "women are independent individuals same as men and can wear whatever they want". So it's none of your bussiness to judge what they wear.

[@AkiRa22084]

I don't need any of those problems solved. Stop rushing the WALL-E future.

[@lucianofreire1848]

Is this an EDUCATIONAL piece of information or rather one of IDEOLOGICAL PROPAGANDA??? What is exactly the link between a HIJAB or a TURBAN and SCIENCE???

[@UnderscoreZeroLP]

There is none. The point is to highlight that prejudiced individuals are still prevalent in society. I, and I'm sure many others, didn't even notice. Why? Because it's not actually something worth getting worked up over.

[@equitytruthandjustice8309]

You're quite the fool @Underscore Zero.

[@rabbitpiet7182]

They just have a hijab

[@CH-ed4ui]

I'm glad not to participate on KZbin. All of the petty disagreements and opinions I observe are ridiculous. How people are attracted to that kind of dialogue shows just how insecure they are in their own skins. What a waste.
