2. 2 What’s Machine Learning?

3. 3 Machine Learning is programming computers to optimize a performance criterion using example data or past experience There is no need to “learn” to calculate payrol? Learning is used when: Human expertise does not exist (navigating on Mars), Humans are unable to explain their expertise (speech recognition, face recognition), Solution changes in time (routing a computer network), Solution needs to be adapted to particular cases (user biometrics) Why Learn?
