In artificial intelligence and machine learning, inferential statistics is used to make generalisations from a sample of data for the entire population, and to make predictions about future outcomes based on historical data. For example, it can be used to predict user behaviour on a digital platform, the demand for a product, or the efficacy of a medical treatment.
Some of the most common inferential statistics techniques include hypothesis testing, confidence interval, regression analysis, and analysis of variance. These techniques allow data scientists to make informed decisions about a data set and make accurate predictions.
