Machine learning;

A branch of artificial intelligence that enables a machine to learn without being explicitly programmed to do so.

Unsupervised learning;

A machine learning scenario in which the data is unlabeled. The goal is therefore to discover the underlying patterns in the data. Since the data is unlabeled, the algorithm cannot reliably calculate a success rate.

Reinforcement learning;

Reinforcement learning is a learning method in which an agent attempts to maximize the total amount of reward it receives by interacting with a complex and uncertain environment.

Transfer learning;

A method that involves reusing what has been learned about one problem to help solve another, slightly different problem. This is a...
