Abstract

The goal of machine learning is to design and develop algorithms that allow systems to use empirical data, experience, and training to evolve and adapt to changes that occur in their environment. A major focus of machine learning research is to automatically induce models, such as rules and patterns, from the training data it analyzes. As shown in Figure 1.1, machine learning combines techniques and approaches from various areas, including probability and statistics, psychology, information theory, and artificial intelligence.
