Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which metric is used to evaluate the performance of regression models?
  • Step 1: Understand that regression models predict continuous values, like prices or temperatures.
  • Step 2: Know that we need a way to measure how accurate these predictions are.
  • Step 3: Learn about Mean Absolute Error (MAE), which is a common metric for this purpose.
  • Step 4: Realize that MAE calculates the average of the absolute differences between predicted values and actual values.
  • Step 5: Understand that MAE does not consider whether the predictions are above or below the actual values, only the size of the errors.
