IBM Journey to AI blog

Classification algorithms —predict categorical output variables (e.g., “junk” or “not junk”) by labeling pieces of input data. Classification algorithms include logistic regression, k-nearest neighbors and support vector machines (SVMs), among others.

Ever wonder what makes machine learning effective?

Dataconomy

The goal of unsupervised learning is to identify structures in the data, such as clusters, dimensions, or anomalies, without prior knowledge of the expected output. This can be useful for discovering hidden patterns, identifying outliers, and reducing the complexity of high-dimensional data.
