Definitions

• ‘Machine learning is a science of the artificial. The field's main objects of study are artifacts, specifically algorithms that improve their performance with experience.’
  Langley, 1996
• ‘Machine Learning is the study of computer algorithms that improve automatically through experience.’
  Mitchell, 1997
• ‘Machine learning is programming computers to optimize a performance criterion using example data or past experience.’
  Alpaydin, 2004
• ‘Machine learning is an area of artificial intelligence concerned with the development of techniques which allow computers to “learn”.’
  Wikipedia, 2005
• ‘A field of AI concerned with programs that learn. It includes Reinforcement Learning and Neural Networks among many other fields.’
  Artificial Intelligence FAQ, 2004
• Machine learning is an area of artificial intelligence concerned with the study of computer algorithms that improve automatically through experience. In practice, this involves creating programs that optimize a performance criterion through the analysis of data.
  Sewell, 2006
