A kitten named Mittens is using a framework often used in Machine Learning to learn for

herself what dogs are. Mittens' first encounter with a strange new animal $($i$.$e$.,$ the dog$)$ resulted in her getting barked at $($which scared Mittens$).$ Mittens saved that first interaction

in her memory banks and kept it there to be "learned from" at a future date. Specifically, Mittens noted that dogs have bigger ears than she does and they wag their tails. The next

time Mittens meets a new animal that follows those "rules" she will think that it is a dog and

she'll likely be scared because she'll probably predict that the animal will bark at her again,

which Mittens would find very scary. What framework that is also used in Machine Learning is

Mittens using here?
