A Gentle Introduction To Approximation

When it comes to machine learning tasks such as classification or regression, approximation techniques play a key role in learning from the data. Many machine learning methods approximate a function or a mapping between the inputs and outputs via a learning algorithm.

In this tutorial, you will discover what is approximation and its importance in machine learning and pattern recognition.

After completing this tutorial, you will know:
