Types and Applications of Machine Learning

The video tutorial introduces three main types of machine learning: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning. Supervised learning involves training a model with known data to predict outcomes, exemplified by classifying animals. Unsupervised learning organizes data without predefined answers, useful for grouping similar users in streaming services. Reinforcement learning uses trial and error to improve tasks, demonstrated by a robot arm learning to catch a ball. The tutorial concludes with advice on choosing the right learning approach based on the problem at hand.

Which of the following is NOT a type of machine learning?

• Supervised Learning

• Learning to cook

• Catching a ball with a robot arm

How does unsupervised learning differ from supervised learning?

• It uses labeled data

• It organizes data without predefined labels

• It predicts future events

• It requires human supervision

Which of the following is an example of unsupervised learning?

• Grouping users based on viewing habits

• Predicting stock prices
