Statistical inference is the process of using data from a sample to draw conclusions or make predictions about a larger population, typically through estimation, confidence intervals, and hypothesis testing. It underpins fields like epidemiology, economics, and machine learning, allowing researchers to quantify uncertainty and generalize findings beyond the observed data. Statisticians and data scientists apply it to make evidence-based decisions when full population data is unavailable.
