A Learning Machine? Machine Learning(ML) is a subset of Artificial Intelligence. It focuses on learning from the data without being explicitly programmed. So, you might be wondering how does it happen? How can a machine which was built to be programmed explicitly started to learn things on its own? The answer is not that straightforward but is a confounded one but I will try to make it simple. It tries to make decisions with minimal need for human intervention by identifying patterns from the data; statistics and powerful ML algorithms have made it possible to achieve such a feat. The terms machine learning and artificial intelligence were coined around the 1960s so the algorithms and maths behind it had been present for
