Question

If the size of the training set is too large relative to the test set, then a machine learning model will exhibit a high generalization error due to this phenomenon. For 10 points each:
[10h] Identify this phenomenon where a machine learning model corresponds too closely with the data it is trained on.
ANSWER: overfitting
[10e] Overfitting can occur in many machine learning models, one common example of which are these models named for having a structure inspired by the human brain.
ANSWER: neural networks [or neural nets]
[10m] The VC dimension measures how well an ML model can perform this task. Perceptrons perform the “binary” form of this task, which involves assigning data a label with two values.
ANSWER: classification [accept word forms like classifying; accept binary classification]
