Machine Learning and Statistics
Machine Learning
use data to compute hypothesis g that approximates target f
Statistics
use data to
make inference about an unknown process
•
g is an inference outcome; f is something unknown—statistics
can be used to achieve ML
•
traditional statistics also focus onprovable results with math assumptions, and care less about computation
statistics: many useful tools for ML

Which of the following claim is not totally true?
1
machine learning is a route to realize artificial intelligence2
machine learning, data mining and statistics all need data3
data mining is just another name for machine learning4
statistics can be used for data miningReference Answer: 3
While data mining and machine learning do share a huge overlap, they are arguably not equivalent because of the difference of focus.
