Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What does overfitting refer to in machine learning?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand that in machine learning, we train models using data called 'training data'.
Step 2: A model is supposed to learn patterns from this training data to make predictions.
Step 3: Overfitting happens when the model learns the training data too well, including its mistakes and random noise.
Step 4: When a model is overfitted, it performs very well on the training data but poorly on new, unseen data.
Step 5: This means the model cannot generalize its learning to make accurate predictions outside of the training data.
