Supervised vs Unsupervised Machine Learning: What's the Difference? RapidMiner

Machine learning can sometimes seem confusing, with algorithm names and model types seemingly proliferating without end. But we know for a fact that anyone can understand and employ machine learning, no matter their skill level. With major advancements like our latest release (RapidMiner Go), it's easier than ever for beginners to start leveraging machine learning as a powerful tool to drive business impact. That's why we wanted to take a step back and draw up some explainers about the core concepts in machine learning for newcomers. In that spirit, we'll be looking at two of the most common categories of machine learning in this post: supervised and unsupervised machine learning.
