Pattern Recognition, Machine Learning, and Data Mining
Pattern
Recognition
Pattern recognition is the study of methods and algorithms for putting
data objects into categories. While classical pattern recognition techniques
are rooted in statistics and decision theory, the machine learning paradigm
is commonly used to design practical systems.
Machine
Learning
Machine learning is a method of programming computers where, instead of
designing the algorithm to explicitly perform a given task, the machine
is programmed to learn from an incomplete set of examples. There are several
different machine learning paradigms, such as the naive Bayes rule, artificial
neural networks, genetic algorithms, and decision tree learning.
Data Mining
Data mining is the extraction of ?nuggets? of information from structured databases. Algorithms for data
mining have a close relationship to methods of pattern recognition and machine learning. Information extraction
is the task of processing unstructured data, such as free-form documents, Web-pages and e-mail, so as to extract
named entities such as people, places, organizations, and their relationships.
