IAPP Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional (AIGP) — Question 63

Random forest algorithms are in what type of machine learning model?

Answer options

• A. Symbolic.
• B. Generative.
• C. Discriminative.
• D. Natural language processing.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Random forest algorithms are classified as discriminative models because they focus on modeling the decision boundary between classes. Symbolic and generative models serve different purposes, with symbolic focusing on rule-based reasoning and generative dealing with the generation of data. Natural language processing is an application domain rather than a model type.
