What is machine learning and what can it do for products? [Copy link]

“ Machine Learning is a discipline that makes model assumptions about research problems, uses computers to learn model parameters from training data, and ultimately predicts and analyzes data. ”

After reading the above sentence, do you feel that "machine learning" is difficult to understand? Let me give you an example. Just like a child recognizing fruits, a child who has never seen an apple must not know what an apple looks like. When a parent takes a real apple and tells the child that it is an apple, the child must be a little confused at first. However, the parent takes photos or real objects of various apples to tell the child the color, shape, and stripes of the apple. After a long time, the child will know that it is an apple when he sees it. This process is machine learning.

If we (parents) want the machine (kid) to recognize apples, we also need this process. Give the machine a lot of pictures, tell it which pictures have apples and where the apples are, correct (adjust parameters) the machine's cognition, and slowly the machine will recognize apples.
