Machine Learning

Introduction

“A computer program is said to learn from

experience E with respect to some class of tasks T

and performance measure P if its performance at

tasks in T, as measured by P, improves with

experience E.”

—— Mitchell, T. (1997). Machine Learning, McGraw Hill

Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and

deep learning are often used interchangeably,

but they’re not the same. In a nutshell, AI is the

broader concept of machines that can act

intelligently. Machine learning and deep

learning are sub-sets of AI based on the idea

that given access to large volumes of data,

machines can learn for themselves.
