Machine Learning: Random Forest with Python from Scratch - Types of Learning

The video tutorial introduces two main types of machine learning: supervised and unsupervised learning. Supervised learning involves labeled data, where algorithms learn from examples to make predictions. Unsupervised learning deals with unlabeled data, focusing on grouping and classifying data based on inherent features. The tutorial highlights the challenges of unsupervised learning and hints at future discussions on specific algorithms like clustering. The session concludes with a brief mention of upcoming topics on modes of machine learning.

What is the primary characteristic of supervised learning?

• It does not require any data.

• It only uses numerical data.

• It relies on labeled data.

• It uses unlabeled data.

In unsupervised learning, how are data points typically grouped?

• By their labels.

• By their features.

• By their names.

• By their sources.

Which of the following is NOT a feature that might be used to group data in unsupervised learning?

• Size

• Label

• Color

• Shape

What is a key difference between supervised and unsupervised learning?

• Supervised learning is faster than unsupervised learning.

• Unsupervised learning requires more data than supervised learning.

• Unsupervised learning is more accurate than supervised learning.

• Supervised learning uses labeled data, while unsupervised learning uses unlabeled data.

What question is raised about unsupervised learning in the lecture?

• How to label data for unsupervised learning?

• How to train machines for predictions without labeled data?

• How to speed up unsupervised learning?

• How to make unsupervised learning more accurate?
