We have what is called algorithmic learning theory. In brief this methodology lies within AI and machine learning. It focuses on the design and analysis of algorithms that learn from data. This will assist us in having a better understanding of how we can improve performance of AI agents and the tasks that they are deployed to complete.

When we apply this to personalized medicine it can and WILL impact greater precision in how we treat patients in so many ways. Anywhere from customizing healthcare, more accurate medical decisions, precision treatments, practices and personalized products specific to the patient.

Statistical inference is a foundation piece of algorithmic learning theory as it helps us to more accurately make informed conclusions. It involves using data from a sample to make generalizations about a larger population. This is done through the development of probabilistic models for data, then using these models to draw conclusions or make predictions.

𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Statistical inference is used to select between different models or hypotheses. This involves using data to determine which model best explains the observed outcomes. We have techniques like hypothesis testing, information criteria (AIC, BIC), and cross-validation are often used for this purpose.

𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Many learning algorithms involve estimating parameters that define the behavior of a chosen model. With statistical inference we have maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), Bayesian estimation, or methods of moments to estimate these parameters from the data.

𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: In algorithmic learning theory, a primary objective is for us to develop models that generalize well to new, unseen data. Statistical inference provides the framework to estimate the generalization error of a model, often through the use of confidence intervals or prediction intervals.

To bring this full circle we can look at statistical inference as providing the theoretical basis for many aspects of algorithmic learning theory, from understanding and modeling the data to evaluating and improving the performance of learning algorithms. It is through statistical inference that algorithmic learning can be rigorously analyzed and applied to real-world problems due to having an adequate sample size of the population.
