Explores the impact of model complexity on prediction quality through the bias-variance trade-off, emphasizing the need to balance bias and variance for optimal performance.
Delves into the trade-off between model flexibility and bias-variance in error decomposition, polynomial regression, KNN, and the curse of dimensionality.
Covers overfitting, regularization, and cross-validation in machine learning, exploring polynomial curve fitting, feature expansion, kernel functions, and model selection.
