Classification algorithms are a cornerstone of machine learning, a field within artificial intelligence that empowers computers to learn from data without being explicitly programmed for each task. At a high level, a classification algorithm is a predictive modeling technique that assigns an input data point to a predefined category or class. Imagine sorting emails into "spam" and "not spam" – that's a classification task. The algorithm learns from a set of examples (training data) where the correct categories (labels) are already known, and then uses this learned knowledge to classify new, unseen data.
