Machine Learning Concepts
Machine learning (ML) can help you use historical data to make better business decisions. ML algorithms discover patterns in data, and construct mathematical models using these discoveries. Then you can use the models to make predictions on future data. For example, one possible application of a machine learning model would be to predict how likely a customer is to purchase a particular product based on their past behavior.
