🧐 Why This Repository?

Machine learning is a vast field, and while there are numerous frameworks and libraries available, beginners often struggle to understand the fundamental algorithms that power these frameworks. This repository was created to provide:

  • Clear, well-structured implementations of popular ML algorithms.
  • Minimal dependencies, making it easier to experiment and learn without complex setups.
  • Categorized ML techniques, covering different learning paradigms for structured understanding.
  • A foundation for further exploration, enabling users to modify, extend, and integrate these algorithms into their own projects.

Whether you are a beginner looking to grasp the basics or an experienced developer wanting quick reference implementations, this repository aims to be a practical, educational, and accessible resource.

🔥 If you find this repo useful, please considerstarring it! It helps others discover it.

📊 Algorithm Comparison

Algorithm Type Strengths Weaknesses
Linear Regression Supervised Simple, interpretable, fast Sensitive to outliers
Decision Tree Supervised Easy to interpret, non-linear relationships Prone to overfitting
K-Means Clustering Unsupervised Fast and scalable Assumes spherical clusters
PCA Unsupervised Reduces dimensionality, speeds up computation Loses some interpretability
Q-Learning Reinforcement Learns optimal policies Can be computationally expensive
Deep Q-Network (DQN) Reinforcement Handles large state spaces well Requires a lot of training data
Simple Neural Network Deep Learning Learns complex patterns Requires a lot of data
Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Deep Learning Excellent for image processing Computationally intensive
