The field of machine learning is traditionally divided into two main categories: “supervised” and “unsupervised” learning. In supervised learning, algorithms are trained on labeled data, where each input is paired with its corresponding output, providing the algorithm with clear guidance. In contrast, unsupervised learning relies solely on input data, requiring the algorithm to uncover patterns or structures without any labeled outputs.The field of machine learning is traditionally divided into two main categories: “supervised” and “unsupervised” learning.
