 Types of Machine Learning

Machine learning can be classified into three broad categories:
1. Supervised learning — Also called predictive learning. A machine predicts the class of unknown objects based on prior class-related information of similar objects.
2. Unsupervised learning — Also called descriptive learning. A machine finds patterns in unknown objects by grouping similar objects together.
3. Reinforcement learning — A machine learns to act on its own to achieve the given goals.
