Maskininlärning handlar om statistiska prediktioner som förbättras genom erfarenhet; modellen lär och anpassar sig allt eftersom nya data blir tillgängliga. Exempelvis priset som en matvarubutik kan ta ut av en leverantör för en annons beror på hur bra den är på att hitta de kunder som är benägna att köpa leverantörens produkter. På samma sätt är det pris som Google kan ta ut för en annonslänk dirMachine learning refers to statistical model predictions that that improve through experience; as new data arrive, the model learns and adapts. For instance, the price that the supermarket can charge for advertisements depends critically on its ability to learn from the data which customers that are likely prospects for a particular supplier’s product. Similarly, the price that Google can charge f
