What is the difference between learning curves and experience curves?
The difference between learning curves and experience curves is that learning curves only consider time of production (only in terms of labour costs), while experience curve is a broader phenomenon related to the total output of any function such as manufacturing, marketing, or distribution.
How does machine learning determine overfitting?
Overfitting can be identified by checking validation metrics such as accuracy and loss. The validation metrics usually increase until a point where they stagnate or start declining when the model is affected by overfitting.
How to avoid overfitting, bias and learning curves?
In machine learning practice, there is a standard way of trying to avoid these issues before a model is deployed. This involves spitting the available dataset into train, test and holdout sets, typically with something like a 60%, 20%, 20% split.
Which is better overfitting or Underfitting in machine learning?
Depending on the model at hand, a performance that lies between overfitting and underfitting is more desirable. This trade-off is the most integral aspect of Machine Learning model training. As we discussed, Machine Learning models fulfill their purpose when they generalize well.
When does a learning curve show a good fit?
A plot of learning curves shows a good fit if: The plot of training loss decreases to a point of stability. The plot of validation loss decreases to a point of stability and has a small gap with the training loss. Continued training of a good fit will likely lead to an overfit.
Is there a spot between overfitting and underfitting?
This situation is achievable at a spot between overfitting and underfitting. In order to understand it we will have to look at the performance of our model with the passage of time, while it is learning from training dataset.
