The machine learning revolution -- The master algorithm -- Hume's problem of induction -- How does your brain learn? -- Evolution : nature's learning algorithm -- In the church of the Reverend Bayes -- You are what you resemble -- Learning without a teacher -- The pieces of the puzzle fall into place -- This is the world on machine learning.
A guide for understanding the use of algorithms as they are used to learn from data to find books, movies, jobs, and dates for us; manage investments, and discover new drugs. Discusses the search for the ultimate learning algorithm, the five major schools of thought in machine learning, and what the blueprint for the future universal learner looks like, as well as how it will affect business, science, and society.
