About this course

This introductory course looks at machine learning from a user perspective and is based on Machine learning: more science than fiction, a report by ACCA.
Machine learning is a sub-set of artificial intelligence (AI) and is generally understood as the ability of the system to make predictions or draw conclusions based on the analysis of a large historical data set.
