Study Notes

Errors in Machine Learning

  • There are two types of errors in machine learning: bias and variance.

Bias and Variance

  • Bias refers to the difference between the model predictions and actual predictions in machine learning.
  • Variance refers to the amount by which the model's predictions vary for given data.

Aim of ML/Data Science Analysts

  • The main aim of ML/data science analysts is to balance bias and variance to improve model accuracy.

Reducing Error

  • Variance can be reduced to improve model accuracy.

Model Evaluation

  • The measure of how accurately an algorithm can make predictions for a previously unknown dataset is known as model generalization or model reliability.
