Depends on what you mean by learning. Anything that requires active work (STEM subjects or crafts) cannot be learnt by just reading. Of course if you read a history book simply reading and remembering the information is considered learning in that case.
- zone411 4y agoI've been reading many machine learning papers to keep up with the field in the last year and only implemented some. Are you saying that I completely wasted my time reading by them and learned nothing?
- AstixAndBelix 4y agoIt depends. If you are well versed in ML then you know the concepts very well and have already played with them extensively. Thus reading a paper might be enough to learn it because you have done all the conceptual work up front. But even if you didn't learn the papers you still have built a mental catalogue of ML results that you can go back to learning when the occasion to implement them arises. So yes, you probably learned a chunk of them and some you simply remember, but that's ok.
