[Answer] What Does the Pattern Recognition Major Mainly Study? I Majored in Automation as an Undergraduate and Want to Move Toward AI and Robotics in Graduate School—What Should I Choose?

Please forgive my limited knowledge, but I have never heard of a major called "pattern analysis." Judging from the name, however, it should be similar to the field of "pattern recognition." In the broad and interdisciplinary areas you mentioned, such as artificial intelligence and robotics, pattern recognition is a very important component. It can also be said that pattern recognition is an important part of the automation discipline. It is the combined product of control theory and decision-making theory. If you are interested in pursuing work in artificial intelligence, I believe that specializing in pattern recognition would be helpful.
