.

1. Supervised vs Unsupervised ML

✔ In unsupervised machine learning, data professionals ask the model to give them information without telling the model what the answer should be.
✔ Supervised machine learning uses labeled datasets to train algorithms to classify or predict outcomes.
✔ Data professionals use supervised machine learning for prediction.
❌ In supervised machine learning, data professionals ask the model to give them information without telling the model what the answer should be.


2. Machine learning and _____

❌ quality assurance
❌ coding
❌ reinforcement learning
✔ artificial intelligence


3. Continuous variables

✔ The weight of a concrete block
✔ The age of a building
✔ The height of a skyscraper


4. Content-based filtering

❌ Content-based filtering properties never have to be selected and mapped manually.
✔ Content-based filtering can go beyond comparing items to recommending other things that match a user’s preferences.
