>> "Pattern matching" obviously includes "pattern finding" already, in common parlance. So, the terminology I recognise is "pattern matching" when referring to matching an object against a pattern, as in matching strings to regular expressions or in unification (where arbitrary programs can be matched); and "pattern recognition" when referring specifically to machine vision tasks, as an older term that as far as I can tell has fallen out of fashion. The latter term has a long history that I don't know very well and that goes back to the 1950's. You can also find it as "statistical pattern recognition". To be honest, I haven't heard of "pattern finding" before. Can you say what "common parlance" is that? What I'm asking is, whom is it common to, in what circles, etc? Note that a quick google for "pattern finding" gives me only "pattern recognition" results. To clarify, deep learning is not "pattern matching", or in any case you will not find anyone saying that it is.
