Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Answer: Only the multilayer perceptron uses supervised learning.
Multilayer perceptron: trained with labeled input–output pairs using supervised algorithms such as backpropagation, so it performs supervised learning.
Self-organizing feature map: uses competitive, unsupervised learning to cluster similar inputs and organize feature maps; it does not require labeled targets.
Hopfield network: a recurrent associative memory that stores and retrieves patterns via network dynamics; it is not trained with labeled output pairs and is not a supervised model.
Therefore, the correct choice is the one that states only the multilayer perceptron uses supervised learning.
