Is there any domain in machine learning that solves a problem by using only analytical algorithms?
In some cases, you can solve a linear regression problem with an analytical (or closed-form) solution/expression (although this may not always be the best approach). See this answer for more details.

Is there any domain in machine learning that solves a problem by using only analytical algorithms?
Honourable mention: Memory-based approaches
Although not analytic, memory-based models, such as k-nearest neighbours (k-NN) are very lightweight when learning, but have a higher cost to use the stored ...
