Talk:Supervised learning

Content
I did a major rewrite of this article today to improve the balance and scholarly level. I removed the material on Active Learning, as there is already a separate page for that topic. This page still needs references and pictures. Tdietterich (talk) 05:47, 27 July 2010 (UTC) tdietterich


 * The active learning article isn't about machine learning. So I've restored this section. -- X7q (talk) 10:04, 24 August 2010 (UTC)


 * You are right. I still think active learning doesn't belong on this page, so I created a new page active learning (machine learning) and moved the material there.  I should note, however, that the active learning material is not representative of the field and needs to be rewritten. Tdietterich (talk) 06:02, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Merge
Should this article be merged with Function approximation in some way? -- hike395 18:14, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't think it should be merged, because Function approximation is a mathematical approach to the problem, just like how neuroplasticity is a biological approach to it Paskari 20:41, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

after having seen only a small number of training examples ??
necessarily true?

Thanks for a concise, understandable account. tjb

Inconsistency of facts
The overview section says that the Gaussian Mixture Model is one of the most commonly used classifiers. But the Gaussian Mixture Model article says that a Mixture Model can be regarded as a type of unsupervised learning. Can a something be both supervised and unsupervised learning, or are they mutually exclusive? •• Fly by Night (talk) 20:40, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

What is "labeled data"?

Classification?
Doesn't "labeled data" imply classification, which is just one kind of supervised learning? If so, the first para needs to be rewritten to clarify this. Also, why is it called "supervised"? DenisHowe (talk) 15:39, 29 February 2020 (UTC)
