What is ML ?

What is Machine Learning ?


Learn
To gain knowledge or understanding of a skill, by study, instruction, or experience.
Machine Learning
To teach computers 💻 to learn from data, find patterns 🧮, and make decisions or predictions without being explicitly programmed for every task, as humans🧍‍♀️🧍 learn from experience.

Phases of Machine Learning

The machine learning lifecycle ♼ is generally divided into two main stages:

  • Training Phase
  • Runtime (Inference) Phase

Training Phase:
Where the machine learning model is developed and taught to understand a specific task using a large volume of historical data.

Runtime (Inference) Phase:
Where the fully trained and deployed model is put to practical use in a real-world 🌎 environment, i.e., to make predictions on new, unseen data.
