- nokcha 7y agoThe terms "supervised machine learning" and "unsupervised machine learning", by their ordinary English meaning, make it sound like all machine learning is partitioned into one or the other. But a lot of the literature in machine learning considers reinforcement learning to be neither 'supervised learning' nor 'unsupervised learning'. See, e.g., section 1.1 of [1].
