- Machine Learning ✓ understood
Building systems that learn patterns from data instead of following hand-written rules, getting better at a task as they see more examples.
- Neural Network ✓ understood
A computational model inspired by biological neural networks, consisting of interconnected nodes (neurons) organized in layers that process information through weighted connections.
- Recurrent Neural Network ✓ understood
A neural network architecture with loops that allow information to persist, designed for sequential data like text and time series.
- Sequence-to-Sequence ✓ understood
Models that transform input sequences to output sequences, used for translation, summarization, and generation.

Evaluation ROUGE Score Metrics for evaluating text summarization by measuring overlap of n-grams, word sequences, and word pairs with references. Language & LLMs Text Generation Automatically creating coherent text using language models, from simple completion to creative writing. Language & LLMs Large Language Model A neural network, almost always a transformer, trained on vast amounts of text to predict the next token, which lets it write, answer, summarize and follow instructions. Language & LLMs Information Extraction Automatically extracting structured information from unstructured text. Language & LLMs BART Bidirectional and Auto-Regressive Transformer - combines BERT-like encoder with GPT-like decoder for sequence-to-sequence tasks.
