纯小白学机器学习系列：数学基础（day1）

Part I Mathematical Foundations

1 Introduction and Motivation

Machine learning is about designing algorithms that automatically extract
valuable information from data. The emphasis here is on “automatic”, i.e.,
machine learning is concerned about general-purpose methodologies that
can be applied to many datasets, while producing something that is mean-
ingful. There are three concepts that are at the core of machine learning:
data, a model and learning。

个人理解翻译：（瞎姬霸翻，本人时间有限，每天就看这么点）

机器学习是一门关于算法设计的学科，这个算法的作用是自动从数据集合中提取有价值的信息。这里的重点是“自动”两个字。
机器学习就是研究一堆通用的方法，这些方法可以用来从一堆数据集合中产生出有用的内容。（绕来绕去都是同一个意思，嗯，老外很耐心）

机器学习有三个核心的概念组成：数据+模型+学习 = 机器学习
