Introduction to

Machine Learning
Machine learning is a powerful tool that allows computers to learn from data
and make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed. It is
revolutionizing industries and transforming our world.

algorithm.
Bias-Variance Tradeoff
Bias
1 Bias refers to the error introduced by approximating a real-world problem with a
simplified model.

Variance
2 Variance refers to the sensitivity of the model to fluctuations in the training data.

Tradeoff
3 The goal is to find the right balance between bias and variance to achieve
optimal model performance.
Model Evaluation
1 Training
The model is trained on a portion of the available data.

2 Validation
The model's performance is evaluated on a separate validation dataset.

3 Testing
The final model is assessed on a held-out test dataset to estimate its real-world
performance.
