The machine learning process is an iterative process. It cannot be completed in one go. The most important activities to be performed for a machine learning solution are as follows:
- Define the machine learning problem (it must be well-defined).
- Gather, prepare, and enhance the data that is required.
- Use that data to build a model. This step goes in a loop and covers the following substeps. At times, it may also lead to revisiting Step 2 on data or even require the redefinition of the problem statement:
- Select the appropriate model/machine learning algorithm
- Train the machine learning algorithm on the training data and build the model
- Test the model
- Evaluate the results
- Continue this phase until the evaluation ...
