Data Science: Machine Learning (Definitions)

"Machine learning is a field of study that gives computers the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed." (Arthur Samuel, 1959) [attributed]

"Computer methods for accumulating, changing, and updating knowledge in an AI computer system." (Nikola K Kasabov, "Foundations of Neural Networks, Fuzzy Systems, and Knowledge Engineering", 1996)

"A term often used to denote the application of generic model-fitting or classification algorithms for predictive data mining. This differs from traditional statistical data analysis, which is usually concerned with the estimation of population parameters by statistical inference and p-values. The emphasis in data mining machine learning algorithms is usually on the accuracy of the prediction as opposed to discovering the relationship and influences of different variables." (Robert Nisbet et al, "Handbook of statistical analysis and data mining applications", 2009)

"A discipline grounded in computer science, statistics, and psychology that includes algorithms that learn or improve their performance based on exposure to patterns in data, rather than by explicit programming." (Judith S Hurwitz, "Cognitive Computing and Big Data Analytics", 2015)

"Machine learning is the intersection between theoretically sound computer science and practically noisy data. Essentially, it’s about machines making sense out of data in much the same way that humans do." (Matthew Kirk, "Thoughtful Machine Learning", 2015)

"Computer programs that have the ability to learn over time as new data becomes available. This type of analytical programming can learn more about a customer’s online shopping behavior over time and start to predict which items the customer will likely click on and purchase." (Brittany Bullard, "Style and Statistics", 2016)

"Machine learning is home to numerous techniques for creating classifiers by training them with already correctly categorized examples. This training is called supervised learning; it is supervised because it starts with instances labeled by category, and it involves learning because over time the classifier improves its performance by adjusting the weights for features that distinguish the categories. But strictly speaking, supervised learning techniques do not learn the categories; they implement and apply categories that they inherit or are given to them." (Robert J Glushko, "The Discipline of Organizing: Professional Edition" 4th Ed., 2016)

"A subdiscipline of computer science that addresses similar challenges to traditional statistical modeling, but with different techniques and a stronger focus on predictive accuracy." (Jonathan Ferrar et al, "The Power of People: Learn How Successful Organizations Use Workforce Analytics To Improve Business Performance", 2017)

"Machine learning describes a broad set of methods for extracting meaningful patterns from existing data and applying those patterns to make decisions or predictions on future data." (Benjamin Bengfort et al, "Applied Text Analysis with Python: Enabling Language-Aware Data Products with Machine Learning", 2018)

"Machine learning is a method of designing systems that can learn, adjust, and improve based on the data fed to them. Machine learning works based on predictive and statistical algorithms that are provided to these machines. The algorithms are designed to learn and improve as more data flows through the system." (Amar Sahay, "Business Analytics" Vol. I, 2018)

"The field of computer science research that focuses on developing and evaluating algorithms that can extract useful patterns from data sets. A machine learning algorithm takes a data set as input and returns a model that encodes the patterns the algorithm extracted from the data." (John D Kelleher & Brendan Tierney, "Data science", 2018)

[In-Database Machine Learning:] "Using machine-learning algorithms that are built into the database solution. The benefit of in-database machine learning is that it reduces the time spent on moving data in and out of databases for analysis." (John D Kelleher & Brendan Tierney, "Data science", 2018)
