  2. Overfitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overfitting

    Underfitting occurs when a mathematical model cannot adequately capture the underlying structure of the data. An under-fitted model is a model where some parameters or terms that would appear in a correctly specified model are missing. [2] Underfitting would occur, for example, when fitting a linear model to nonlinear data.

  3. Shrinkage (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrinkage_(statistics)

    This idea is complementary to overfitting and, separately, to the standard adjustment made in the coefficient of determination to compensate for the subjective effects of further sampling, like controlling for the potential of new explanatory terms improving the model by chance: that is, the adjustment formula itself provides "shrinkage." But ...

  4. Reduced chi-squared statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduced_chi-squared_statistic

    In ordinary least squares, the definition simplifies to: =, =, where the numerator is the residual sum of squares (RSS). When the fit is just an ordinary mean, then χ ν 2 {\displaystyle \chi _{\nu }^{2}} equals the sample variance , the squared sample standard deviation .

  5. Mallows's Cp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mallows's_Cp

    In statistics, Mallows's, [1] [2] named for Colin Lingwood Mallows, is used to assess the fit of a regression model that has been estimated using ordinary least squares.It is applied in the context of model selection, where a number of predictor variables are available for predicting some outcome, and the goal is to find the best model involving a subset of these predictors.

  6. Regularization (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regularization_(mathematics)

    Techniques like early stopping, L1 and L2 regularization, and dropout are designed to prevent overfitting and underfitting, thereby enhancing the model's ability to adapt to and perform well with new data, thus improving model generalization. [4]

  7. One in ten rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_in_ten_rule

    In statistics, the one in ten rule is a rule of thumb for how many predictor parameters can be estimated from data when doing regression analysis (in particular proportional hazards models in survival analysis and logistic regression) while keeping the risk of overfitting and finding spurious correlations low. The rule states that one ...

  8. Generalization error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalization_error

    Overfitting occurs when the learned function becomes sensitive to the noise in the sample. As a result, the function will perform well on the training set but not perform well on other data from the joint probability distribution of x {\displaystyle x} and y {\displaystyle y} .

  9. Goodness of fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodness_of_fit

    where and are the same as for the chi-square test, denotes the natural logarithm, and the sum is taken over all non-empty bins. Furthermore, the total observed count should be equal to the total expected count: ∑ i O i = ∑ i E i = N {\displaystyle \sum _{i}O_{i}=\sum _{i}E_{i}=N} where N {\textstyle N} is the total number of observations.
