What is a labeled data?
A labeled data, in the context of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and specifically in the domain of Google Cloud Machine Learning, refers to a dataset that has been annotated or marked with specific labels or categories. These labels serve as the ground truth or reference for training machine learning algorithms. By associating data points with their corresponding labels, the machine learning model can learn to recognize patterns and make predictions based on new, unseen data.
Labeled data plays a important role in supervised learning, which is a common approach in machine learning. In supervised learning, the model is trained on a labeled dataset to learn the relationship between input features and their corresponding output labels. This training process allows the model to generalize its knowledge and make accurate predictions on new, unseen data.
To illustrate this concept, let's consider an example of a machine learning task in the field of image recognition. Suppose we want to build a model that can classify images of animals into different categories such as cats, dogs, and birds. We would need a labeled dataset where each image is associated with its correct label. For instance, an image of a cat would be labeled as "cat," an image of a dog as "dog," and so on.
The labeled dataset would consist of a collection of images and their corresponding labels. Each image would be represented by a set of features, such as pixel values or higher-level representations extracted from the image. The labels would indicate the correct category or class to which each image belongs.
During the training phase, the machine learning model would be presented with the labeled dataset. It would learn to identify patterns and relationships between the input features and the corresponding labels. The model would update its internal parameters to minimize the difference between its predictions and the true labels in the training data.
Once the model is trained, it can be used to make predictions on new, unseen images. Given an unlabeled image, the model would analyze its features and predict the most likely label based on its learned knowledge from the labeled dataset. For example, if the model predicts that an image contains a cat, it means that it has recognized patterns in the image that are indicative of a cat.
Labeled data is a fundamental component in training machine learning models. It provides the necessary information for the model to learn from and make accurate predictions. By associating data points with their corresponding labels, the model can learn to recognize patterns and generalize its knowledge to unseen data.
