How Machine Learning Works….
 What is meant by learning?
• Writing algorithms that can learn patterns from data.
• The algorithms create a statistical model that is a good approximation of the
data.

 A Machine Learning model is a function that tries to find

the relationship between the features and the target
variable.
 It tries to find the pattern in the data, understand the data
and train on the data.
 Based on the learning, an ML model makes predictions
and recognize the patterns.
 Machine Learning Models….

It is not important to have a linear relationship between the

variables all the time.
We need some complex models then – Simple line/curve
fitting doesn’t work well.
