    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.
