Machine learning definition
- [Instructor] As I reflected on my usage of regular expressions, software patterns, and even musical patterns, I realized that sports, astronomical phenomenon, animal behavior, business, they all had similarities, so I came to the stunning realization that the world is composed of patterns. So, machine learning and AI in general is all about patterns. It's about recognizing patterns in data and then predicting future data points based on those patterns, or you're generating new data that follows those patterns. Either you're predicting or you're generating. Now, in the late '40s, a professor at MIT, Norbert Wiener, came up with this quote: "One of the most interesting aspects of the world is that it can be considered to be made up of patterns." Now, I would extend that to say one of the most interesting aspects of the universe, because many patterns extend to astronomical phenomenon, for example, complexity theory. So, I realized that one of the most interesting aspects of the…
