<p>
With all these analytical equations for both the OLS and Ridge
regression, we will now outline how to assess a given model. This will
lead us to a discussion of the so-called bias-variance tradeoff (see
below) and so-called resampling methods.
<p>
One of the quantities we have discussed as a way to measure errors is
the mean-squared error (MSE), mainly used for fitting of continuous
functions. Another choice is the absolute error.
<p>
In the discussions below we will focus on the MSE and in particular since we will split the data into test and training data,
we discuss the
<ol>
<li> prediction error or simply the <b>test error</b> \( \mathrm{Err_{Test}} \), where we have a fixed training set and the test error is the MSE arising from the data reserved for testing. We discuss also the</li>
<li> training error \( \mathrm{Err_{Train}} \), which is the average loss over the training data.</li>
</ol>
As our model becomes more and more complex, more of the training data tends to used. The training may thence adapt to more complicated structures in the data. This may lead to a decrease in the bias (see below for code example) and a slight increase of the variance for the test error.
For a certain level of complexity the test error will reach minimum, before starting to increase again. The
training error reaches a saturation.
