Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.

Assertion A: Unsupervised learning algorithms are used for tasks like data summarization and exploratory data analysis.

Reason R: Unsupervised learning requires labelled dataset to find relationships and patterns in data.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. A.

    Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A

  2. B.

    Both A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

  3. C.

    A is correct but R is not correct

  4. D.

    A is not correct but R is correct

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Assertion A is correct because unsupervised learning is used for tasks like data summarization and exploratory data analysis, where the goal is to find patterns without predefined labels. Reason R is incorrect because unsupervised learning does not require labeled data; it works on unlabeled datasets to discover hidden structures. Therefore, Assertion A is true, but Reason R is false, making option 2 the correct choice.
