Model Answer
(B) Classification
A diagram showing data points sorted into predefined labeled categories represents a Classification model, which is a supervised learning approach that assigns inputs to discrete classes.
Explanation
- Classification uses labeled data and assigns outputs to distinct categories (e.g., spam/not spam, hot/cold). The diagram typically shows data divided into separate labeled groups/categories.
- Clustering (unsupervised) finds groups without predefined labels — eliminate if the diagram shows labeled categories.
- Regression predicts continuous values — eliminate if the diagram doesn't show a trend line or continuous output.
- Key examiner tip: Look at whether the groups/outputs are labeled and predefined (→ Classification) or discovered by the model (→ Clustering).
