Questions and Answers

What does supervised learning regression predict?

  • Continuous values (correct)
  • Discrete values
  • Categorical values
  • Binary values

In supervised learning, what percentage of data is typically used for training?

  • 60%
  • 80% (correct)
  • 90%
  • 40%

What is the main difference between classification and regression in supervised learning?

  • Classification predicts continuous values, while regression predicts discrete values.
  • Regression is used for categorical data, while classification is used for numerical data.
  • Classification focuses on binary outcomes, while regression focuses on multi-class outcomes.
  • Classification deals with defined labels, while regression deals with continuous values. (correct)
