Question 181 · 236 in bank
A medical research project uses a large anonymized dataset of brain scan images that are categorized into predefined brain haemorrhage types. You need to use machine learning to support early detection of the different brain haemorrhage types in the images before the images are reviewed by a person. This is an example of which type of machine learning?
Show answer
Answer: C
Explanation
This is classification. There are multiple reasons it's classification - The training data is already tagged as with the correct type of hemorrhage - Classification can be done for more than two classes (which people seem to not realize based on the comments) - You do clustering on a group of inputs. For example, the scans of 10 people. You can't cluster a single input. Clearly you get a new scan of a new patient and you want to know what that scan shows, you don't have a group of scans to cluster. - Clustering gives NO labels. You just get groups and don't know what the label is, but in this question it's very clear they want to know the label that belongs to the new scan -> classification
