Classification
Noun · AI & Machine Learning
Definitions
A supervised machine learning task where the model learns to assign input data to one of a predefined set of discrete categories or labels. Common examples include spam detection, image recognition, and sentiment analysis.
In plain English: Teaching a computer to sort things into categories, like training it to look at emails and decide which ones are spam and which are real.
Example: "Our classification model can distinguish cat photos from dog photos with 98% accuracy, but it still thinks hot dogs are dogs."
