【机器学习】 常用的六种“分类”算法 - 概述及实战

​

监督学习 vs. 无监督学习 vs. 强化学习

(Supervised vs. Unsupervised vs. Reinforcement Learning)

The easiest way to distinguish a supervised learning and unsupervised learning is to see whether the data is labelled or not.

Supervised learning learns a function to make prediction of a defined label based on the input data. It can be either classifying data into a category (classification problem) or forecasting an outcome (regression algorithms).

Unsupervised learning reveals the underlying pattern in the dataset that are not explicitly presented, which can discover the similarity of data points (clustering algorithms) or uncover hidden relationships of variables (association rule algorithms) …

Reinforcement learning is another type of machine learning, where the agents learn to take actions based on its interaction with the environment, with the aim to maximize rewards. It is most similar to the learning process of human, following a trial-and-error approach.

分类算法 vs. 回归算法 (Classification vs Regression)

Supervised learning can be furthered categorized into classification and regression algorithms. Classification model identifies which category an object belongs to whereas regression model predicts a continuous output.

Sometimes there is an
