The document outlines the typical project life cycle for an AI project, which includes 5 main steps: 1) problem scoping to define the problem, 2) data acquisition, 3) data exploration to arrange the data, 4) modelling using techniques like supervised and unsupervised learning, and 5) evaluation of the model's performance on test data. Key aspects within each step like the 4W canvas for problem scoping and types of learning approaches are also described at a high level.

Project Life Cycle
What is AI Project Cycle?
It is the life cycle of an AI project which makes it easier for doing AI based projects with ease using different steps of approach to the solution.The project has been classified into 5 procedural steps. Problem Scoping Data acquisition Data exploring Modelling Evaluation and Deployment Flow chart Problem Scoping
It is a fact that we are surrounded by problems. They could be small or big,
sometimes ignored or sometimes even critical. Many times, we become so used to a problem that it becomes a part of our life. Identifying such a problem and having a vision to solve it, is what Problem Scoping is about. Scoping a problem is not that easy as we need to have a deeper understanding around it so that the picture becomes clearer while we are working to solve it. Hence, we use the 4Ws Problem Canvas to help us out. 4 W’s Canvas
The 4W’s of Problem Scoping are Who, What, Where and Why. This helps in identifying and understanding the problem in a better and efficient manner. Who - “Who” part helps us in comprehending and categorizing who all are affected directly and indirectly with the problem and who are called the Stake Holders What - “What” part helps us in understanding and identifying thenature of the problem and under this block, you also gather evidence to prove that the problem you have selected exists. Where- "Where” does the problem arise, situation,context,and location. Why - “Why” is the given problem worth solving. Problem Statement Template
The Problem Statement Template helps us to summarize all the key points into one single template. So that in the future, whenever there is a need to look back at the basis of the problem, we can take a look at the Problem Statement Template and understand its key elements of it. Data Acquisition
As the term clearly mentions, this stage is about acquiring data for the project. Let us first understand what is Data. Data can be a piece of information or facts and statistics collected together for reference or analysis. Whenever we want an AI project to be able to predict an output, we need to train it first using data. For Example:- For example, If you want to make an Artificially Intelligent system which can predict the salary of any employee based on his previous salaries, you would feed the data of his previous salaries into the machine. This is the data with which the machine can be trained. Now, once it is ready, it will predict his next salary efficiently. The previous salary data here is known as Training Data while the next salary prediction data set is known as the Testing Data. Data Exploration
Data Exploration is the process of arranging the gathered data uniformly for a better understanding. Data can be arranged in the form of a table, plotting a chart, or making a data base.To analyse the data, you need to visualise it in some user- friendly format so that you can:Quickly get a sense of the trends, relationships and patterns define strategy for which model to use at a later stage communicate the same to others effectively. Modelling
The graphical representation makes the data understandable for humans as we can discover trends and patterns out of it. But when it comes to machines accessing and analysing data, it needs the data in the most basic form of numbers (which is binary – 0s and 1s) and when it comes to discovering patterns and trends in data, the machine goes in for mathematical representations of the same. The ability to mathematically describe the relationship between parameters is the heart of every AI model. Thus, whenever we talk about developing AI models, it is the mathematical approach towards analysing data which we refer to. Types of modelling
Rule Based Approach
Refers to the AI modelling where the rules are defined by the developer. The machine follows the rules or instructions mentioned by the developer and performs its task accordingly. Learning Based Approach Refers to the AI modelling where the machine learns by itself. Under the Learning Based approach,the AI model gets trained on the data fed to it and then is able to design a model which is adaptive to the change in data. Types of learning based approach.
Supervised Learning In a supervised learning model, the dataset which is fed to the machine is labelled. In other words, we can say that the dataset is known to the person who is training the machine only then he/she is able to label the data. There are two types of Supervised Learning models: Classification: Where the data is classified according to the labels. Regression: Such models work on continuous data. Types of learning based approach. Unsupervised Learning An unsupervised learning model works on un labelled dataset. This means that the data which is fed to the machine is random and there is a possibility that the person who is training the model does not have any information regarding it. Unsupervised learning models can be further divided into two categories: Clustering: Refers to the unsupervised learning algorithm which can cluster the unknown data according to the patterns or trends identified out of it. Dimensionality Reduction: We humans are able to visualise upto 3-Dimensions only but according to a lot of theories and algorithms, there are various entities which exist beyond 3- Dimensions Evaluation
Once a model has been made and trained, it needs to go through proper testing so that one can calculate the efficiency and performance of the model. Hence, the model is tested with the help of Testing Data (which was separated out of the acquired dataset at Data Acquisition stage) and the efficiency of the model is calculated on the basis of the parameters mentioned below: Accuracy, Precision,Recall, F1 Score Neural Networks
Neural networks are loosely modelled after how neurons in the human brain behave. The key advantage of neural networks are that they are able to extract data features automatically without needing the input of the programmer. A neural network is essentially a system of organizing machine learning algorithms to perform certain tasks. It is a fast and efficient way to solve problems for which the dataset is very large, such as in images.
