Aids in selecting a starting algorithm for your solution; at that point discover similar algorithms to see which works best for your task (and data) at hand.

Decision Framework: Discriminative vs. Generative

To determine your path, follow this logic:

  • **Is the goal to classify or predict based on existing patterns?** → Use **Discriminative AI** (e.g., Classification, Regression, Anomaly Detection).
  • **Is the goal to create new content or simulate data distributions?** → Use **Generative AI** (e.g., Text Generation, Image Synthesis, Data Augmentation).
  • **Are you building an autonomous system?** → Evaluate **Agentic Workflow Selection**:
    • If the task requires high-precision, low-latency, or structured tool-calling: Use **Small Language Models (SLMs)**.
    • If the task requires broad reasoning, cross-domain abstraction, or multi-step planning: Use **Large Language Models (LLMs)** or a hybrid architecture.

Recommended Algorithm Families

Task Type Recommended Algorithm Families
Clustering K-Means, DBSCAN, Hierarchical Clustering
Forecasting ARIMA, Prophet, LSTM, Transformer-based Time Series
Classification Logistic Regression, SVM, Random Forest, Gradient Boosted Trees
Anomaly Detection Isolation Forest, One-Class SVM, Autoencoders
Generative Tasks GANs, Diffusion Models, Autoregressive Transformers (LLMs)
Pathfinding/Control Q-Learning, Deep Q-Network (DQN), PPO (Reinforcement Learning)

Model Evaluation Metrics

To verify if your chosen algorithm is performing optimally, you must implement a rigorous evaluation strategy linked to Train, Validate, and Test workflows:

  • **Holdout Validation:** Split data into training and testing sets to measure generalization.
  • **Cross-Validation:** Use K-Fold techniques to ensure performance stability across different data subsets.
  • **Task-Specific Metrics:**
    • Classification: Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-Score, Confusion Matrix.
    • Regression: Mean Squared Error (MSE), R-Squared.
    • Agentic/Generative: Instruction-following rate, Tool-call correctness, Groundedness, and LLM-as-a-judge scores.
