Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the purpose of model selection?
  • Step 1: Understand that a model is a mathematical representation used to make predictions or decisions based on data.
  • Step 2: Realize that there are many different models available, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.
  • Step 3: Know that model selection is the process of evaluating these different models to find the one that performs the best.
  • Step 4: Learn that performance metrics (like accuracy, precision, or recall) are used to measure how well each model works.
  • Step 5: Choose the model that has the best performance metrics for your specific problem.
