Unsupervised Learning "We expect unsupervised learning to become far more important in the longer term.Human and animal learning is largely unsupervised:we discover the structure of the world by observing it,not by being told the name of every object." LeCun,Bengio,Hinton,Nature 2015 As I've said in previous statements:most of human and animal learning is unsupervised learning.If intelligence was a cake, unsupervised learning would be the cake,supervised learning would be the icing on the cake,and reinforcement learning would be the cherry on the cake.We know how to make the icing and the cherry,but we don't know how to make the cake.
