1. What's the name of the other category?

Explanation

Unsupervised learning is the correct answer because it refers to a type of machine learning where the algorithm learns patterns and relationships from unlabeled data without any specific guidance or supervision. In this category, the algorithm explores the data and identifies hidden structures or clusters on its own. It is different from supervised learning, where the algorithm learns from labeled data, and reinforcement learning, where the algorithm learns through trial and error with a reward system. Semi-supervised learning and active learning are other categories, but they are not the "other" category mentioned in the question.

2. What happens in clustering?

Explanation

In clustering, the inputs are divided into groups based on their similarities or patterns. This process involves grouping similar data points together and separating them from other dissimilar data points. By dividing the inputs into groups, clustering helps in identifying distinct clusters or categories within a dataset, which can be useful for various purposes such as data analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making.

3. One of them is?

Explanation

Supervised learning is a type of machine learning where the model is trained using labeled data, meaning that the input data is accompanied by the correct output. The model learns from this labeled data to make predictions or classify new, unseen data. In supervised learning, the algorithm learns from a known dataset and tries to generalize the patterns to make accurate predictions on new, unseen data. This is in contrast to other options like semi-supervised learning, active learning, and reinforcement learning, which have different approaches and objectives in training the model.

4. Inputs are divided into how many in Classifications?

Explanation

The inputs are divided into two classifications.

Submit
5. Who coined the name?

Explanation

Arthur Samuel is credited with coining the name.

Submit
6. When was the name coined?

Explanation

The name was coined in 1959.

Submit
7. What is the nationality of Arthur Samuel?

Explanation

Arthur Samuel's nationality is America because the question asks for his nationality and America is the only option that represents a nationality.

Submit
8. Where was the name coined?

Explanation

The name "IBM" was coined at IBM itself.

Submit
9. Who provided a formal definition of machine learning?

Explanation

Tom M. Mitchell provided a formal definition of machine learning.

Submit
10. Machine learning is divided into how many categories?

Explanation

Machine learning is divided into two main categories: supervised learning and unsupervised learning. In supervised learning, the algorithm is trained on labeled data, where the input and the desired output are provided. The algorithm learns from this data to make predictions or decisions. In unsupervised learning, the algorithm is trained on unlabeled data, where there are no predefined outputs. The algorithm learns patterns and structures in the data to make sense of it. These two categories cover the majority of machine learning techniques and applications.
