Vectorization

Converting data (like words) into numerical format for AI processing.

Help me explain to...

K–5th
Vectorization is like turning words into numbers so the computer can understand them.


6–8th
To read text, AI turns it into math. Every word becomes a number called a vector.


9–12th
Vectorization converts inputs (like text or images) into numerical representations that can be processed by machine learning algorithms.

Expeditions

K–5th
Turn a sentence into numbers using a code. Show how a computer might do the same!


6–8th
Explore basic word vectors using charts. Visualize how words are placed in space.


9–12th
Compare different embedding techniques like one-hot vs. word2vec. Discuss pros and cons.
