Genetic Algorithm Concepts and Working

Machine learning is the branch of computing in which a program works out its rule from examples instead of being handed that rule by a programmer, and is judged on how well the rule holds on cases it was never shown.

A neural network is a stack of layers of very simple arithmetic units whose connection strengths are adjusted by training until the whole arrangement turns the inputs you have into the outputs you want.

Deep learning is machine learning built on neural networks of many stacked layers, which work out for themselves which properties of the raw data matter instead of being handed a list by a person.

Data analysis is the practice of interrogating data to answer a specific question, and of establishing how much weight the answer can bear.

Data wrangling is the work of repairing and reshaping real records, and of deciding what their gaps and inconsistencies mean, until a table can be trusted with the question being asked of it.

Data visualisation is the practice of encoding numbers as position, length and colour so that a comparison a reader would otherwise have to calculate becomes something they can simply see.
