[38:19] Performance Metrics for Grading Only

๐Ÿš€ Just finished diving into MLG 015 on Performance in Machine Learning! Here's what I learned:

๐Ÿ“Š Performance is all about balancing bias and variance. High variance = overfitting (memorizing noise), while high bias = underfitting (oversimplifying data).

๐Ÿ’ก Key performance boosters include:

  • Collecting more data (especially crucial for neural networks)
  • Normalizing features to maintain consistent scales
  • Handling missing data intelligently
  • Using regularization to balance model complexity

๐Ÿง  Remember: Final evaluation metrics are for grading only, not for training. The model needs its own internal compass (loss function) to learn effectively.

What performance optimization techniques have you found most effective in your ML projects?
