Models and model builders, By Abhinanda Sarkar Academic Director Data Science ML at Great Learning
A model is an object that represents information. For example, a regression model uses a straight line to represent the relationship between two variables. This talk briefly addresses the question of whether models and model building are still important in statistics, machine learning, and related areas. Two awards from 2019 give useful contexts: the Turing Award (the Nobel Prize in Computing ) for deep learning, and the Sveriges Riksbank Prize (the Nobel Prize in Economics ) for field experiments.
