What Do You Mean When You Say You're Training a Machine Learning Model? - DZone Big Data

I was sharing my latest Algorithmic Rotoscope image on Facebook and a friend asked me what I meant by training a machine learning model. When you get too close to the fire, you lose your words sometimes. It is why I try to step away and write stories about it -- it helps me find my words and learn to use them in new and interesting ways. Thankfully, I have a partner in crime who understands this stuff and knows how to use her words. I use my blog as a reference for my ideas and thoughts, and I didn't want to lose this one. I'm playing with machine learning so that I can better understand what it does and what it doesn't do.
