I have a degree in Machine Learning. Recently I started working on a smartphone app involving CV. I am working closely with CV researcher. And guess what? They use vectors, linear algebra, probability and classifiers too! They just go to different conferences to talk about them. If you learn enough math you can see through most of the terminology differences. Those of us in the so-called real world must never forget the harsh industry structure of academia rewards fragmentation and obscurity, not unification and accessibility. It's the fault of the customers (grant makers) for rewarding this labor maximization behavior.
