Understanding Machine Learning - DZone Big Data

Branch of AI: Artificial intelligence is the study and development by which a computer and its systems are given the ability to successfully accomplish tasks that would typically require a human's intelligent behavior. Supervised learning: in this type of learning, the correct outcome for each data point is explicitly labeled when training the model. In a classification context, the learning algorithm could be, for example, fed with historic credit card transactions each labeled as safe or suspicious. Machine learning is used to find meaningful relations and to predict outcomes while data experts serve as translators to make sense of why the relation exists.
