Q: What is overfitting in the context of neural networks?
Solution:
Overfitting occurs when a model learns the training data too well, capturing noise instead of the underlying pattern.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that a neural network is a type of model used to learn from data.
Step 2: When we train a neural network, we give it a set of data called 'training data'.
Step 3: The goal of training is for the model to learn the important patterns in the data.
Step 4: Sometimes, the model can learn the training data too well, including the small details and noise.
Step 5: This is called 'overfitting'. It means the model is too focused on the training data.
Step 6: When a model is overfitted, it performs well on the training data but poorly on new, unseen data.
Step 7: To avoid overfitting, we can use techniques like simplifying the model or using more training data.
