The correct answer is C. Regression. Regression is the machine learning task used when a model predicts a target value based on other fields in a dataset. In FortiSIEM’s machine learning workflow, regression configuration includes selecting Fields to use for Prediction and a Field to Predict. The User Guide explains that during regression training, the analyst chooses the fields used for prediction and the field being predicted, then trains the model with a Train factor. This matches the question exactly: the model predicts a target based on other fields, and the inference phase can identify anomalies when observed values differ significantly from predicted values. Classification is used to assign records to discrete classes or categories, not to predict a continuous target metric from other variables. Clustering groups similar observations without a predefined target field. Forecasting predicts future values over time, normally based on time-series behavior. Because the question specifically describes predicting a target field from other dataset fields and detecting mismatch from the prediction, the correct machine learning method is Regression.
