Glossary Term
Machine Learning
Machine Learning refers to a general category of algorithms, statistical models, and computing technologies designed to enable computing systems to perform tasks competently or make reasonable decisions without the provision of new instructions in each case.
A common application of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, machine learning is often employed to enable software to optimize its own operation over time—for example, to make better and better authentication decisions as it gathers more information about a user's behavior.
