From Quora What are some good jokes in the machine learning community?

Dan Levin, What is the difference between statistics, machine learning, AI and data mining?

  • If there are up to 3 variables, it is statistics.
  • If the problem is NP-complete, it is machine learning.
  • If the problem is PSPACE-complete, it is AI.
  • If you don't know what is PSPACE-complete, it is data mining.
The more you know about Machine Learning theory, the more you will enjoy this joke! Note: PSPACE-complete problems can be solved using only a relatively limited amount of space - here is a more technical explanation of PSPACE-complete

THE TOP TEN REASONS TO BECOME A STATISTICIAN, from my.ilstu.edu/~gcramsey/Pearson.html

  • Deviation is considered normal.
  • We feel complete and sufficient.
  • We are "mean" lovers.
  • Statisticians do it discretely and continuously.
  • We are right 95% of the time.
  • We can legally comment on someone's posterior distribution.
  • We may not be normal but we are transformable.
  • We never have to say we are certain.
  • We are honestly significantly different.
  • No one wants our jobs.

"The primary purpose of the DATA statement is to give names to constants; instead of referring to pi as 3.141592653589793 at every appearance, the variable PI can be given that value with a DATA statement and used instead of the longer form of the constant. This also simplifies modifying the program, should the value of pi change."
