How do machines learn? Evaluating the AIcon2abs method 文章

arXiv:2401.07386v5 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study expands on previous work that introduced the AIcon2abs method (AI from Concrete to Abstract: Demystifying Artificial Intelligence to the general public), an innovative approach designed to increase public understanding of machine learning (ML) across diverse age groups, including K-12 students, and aims to evaluate its effectiveness. AIcon2Abs employs the WiSARD algorithm, a weightless neural network known for its simplicity, and user accessibility. WiSARD does not require Internet, making it ideal for non-technical users and resource-limited environments. This method enables participants to intuitively visualize and interact with ML processes through engaging, hands-on activities, as if they were the algorithms themselves. The method allows users to intuitively visualize and understand the internal processes of training and classification through practical activities.
