Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

- In machine learning there seem to be various types of learning.
- I commonly hear about
- - supervised learning,
- - unsupervised learning, and
- - reinforcement learning.
- However, it is not always clear to me how they differ or what paradigm is best used for a particular task.
I can also imagine that these paradigms do not cover all possible tasks.Therefore, my question: What are the difference between these paradigms and what other paradigms should I know about?
