A gentle introduction to Machine Learning

Machine Learningis a big part of big data and data science. A subset of artificial intelligence - a branch of science notorious for requiring advanced knowledge of mathematics. In practice though, most data scientists don’t try to build a Chappie and there are simpler, practical ways to get started with machine learning. Machine learning in practice involves predictions based on data. Notable examples include Amazon’s product recommendations with the “customers also bought” scroll-list, or Gmail’s priority inbox or any email spam-filter feature.
