Is a statistics departments research in nonparametric statistics and statistical learning considered “machine learning”? Is there overlap? [D]
A lot of the departments where I’ve seen “machine learning” research has been in computer science departments. However, I’ve seen a good number of statistics departments that have some sort of overlapping research areas, like:
“High dimensional statistics”, “nonparametric statistics”, “statistical learning”,
I was wondering if the type of research statisticians do in these areas is considered machine learning, or is it more so statistical methodology.

Yes, lots of statistics depts. participate in machine learning. They will have a slightly different approach than CS people though.
