Image classification: a human-computer approach

In this learning sequence we explore the classification of images typically undertaken by an artificial intelligence (AI). One group of students creates images (representing a dataset) while another group of students creates rules (representing a machine learning algorithm) to classify the images, simulating the process of training an AI to classify images based on patterns.
