Microsof  t Azure Machine Learning

Machine Learning emphasizes the computational work of software to process sample and/or historic data with the goal of uncovering interesting patterns, identifying objectives, and predicting outcome. For example, machine learning might uncover that for the past 14 years of worker’s compensation claims data, ear injuries in construction have an 88% chance of staying open for 180 days. Or when provided with juvenile offender historic data and recent juvenile crime data, machine learning might predict a 79% chance that a given juvenile’s next offense will result in an assault.
