• Machine Learning (ML) is the science of getting computers to learn and act
like humans do, and improve their learning over time in autonomous
fashion, by feeding them data and information in form of observations and
real-world interactions.”
• The above definition encapsulates the ideal objective or ultimate aim of
machine learning.
• Machine Learning at its most basic is the practice of using algorithms to
parse data, learn from it, and apply what it has learnt to , make a
determination , informed decision or prediction about something in the
world.” – Nvidia
• “Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being
explicitly programmed.” – Stanford
What is Machine Learning ?(contd..)
• Machines that learn are useful to humans because, with all of their
processing power, they’re able to quickly highlight or find patterns in
big (or other) data, that would have otherwise been missed by
human beings.
• Machine learning is a tool that can be used to enhance humans’
abilities to solve problems and make informed inferences on a wide
range of problems, from helping diagnose diseases to coming up with
solutions for global climate change.
