1.3.2. Unsupervised Learning: Finding Hidden Patterns

Unsupervised learning is like being handed a pile of photos with no labels and being asked to organize them into groups. You find natural clusters based on similarities you discover yourself.

Unsupervised learning includes:
  • Clustering: Groups similar items together without pre-defined categories
