Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Considering a dataset with mostly quadratic relationships and a model using linear regression, analyze the potential errors the model may incur.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Review the definitions of bias and how they relate to underfitting.

Question 2

Describe a scenario in which increasing the training set size might help mitigate overfitting in a complex model.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the balance between model complexity and available data.
