Abstract

This chapter introduces several typical model evaluation methods that have been widely applied to various practical applications. Model evaluation is traditionally an integral part of the machine learning model development process. It uses statistical methods to help determine the best machine learning model for a given dataset, and help understand how well the machine learning model will perform in the future. All the evaluations are dependent on the training and test datasets that are collected prior to the model development process.
