To request field trip dates, visit https://oepreg.bnl.gov/.

What is machine learning? What is AI? And how to these technologies affect everyday life? To address these questions, students will perform a hands-on sorting algorithm to classify images as an introduction to machine learning and artificial intelligence. Then, they will use the coding language Python for analyzing large data sets via machine learning techniques and apply a confusion matrix to check the accuracy of their Python algorithm.

Vocabulary: machine learning, artificial intelligence, classification, confusion matrix
