Unsupervised machine learning deals with learning unlabeled data—that is, data that has not been classified or categorized, and arriving at conclusions/patterns in relation to them.
These categories learn from test data that has not been labeled, classified, or categorized. Instead of responding to feedback, unsupervised learning identifies commonalities in the data and reacts based on the presence or absence of such commonalities in each new piece of data.
The input given to the learning algorithm is unlabeled and, hence, there is no straightforward way to evaluate the accuracy of the structure that is produced as output by the algorithm. This is one feature that distinguishes unsupervised learning from supervised learning.Â
The unsupervised algorithms have predictor attributes but NO objective function...
