Chapter 6. Statistical and Machine Learning
Machine learning enables you to create and use computer algorithms, learn from these algorithms, correct them, and improve them to draw any new patterns that were unknown in the past. You can also extract insights from these new patterns that were found from the data. For instance, one may be interested in teaching a computer how to recognize ZIP codes value in an image. Another example is if we have a specific task, such as to determine spam messages, then instead of writing a program to solve this directly, in this paradigm, you can seek methods to learn and become better at getting accurate results using a computer.
Machine learning has become a significant part of artificial intelligence in recent years. With the power of computing, it is very likely that we will be able to build intelligent systems using machine learning methods. With the power of computing that we have today, these tasks have become far simpler than they were two...
