How do machines learn? Evaluating the AIcon2abs method

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
