Question 1

What does RMSE tell us compared to MSE?

It measures error in squared units
It uses the original unit for interpretation
It focuses only on absolute errors

💡 Hint: Think about how each metric provides information about error.

Question 2

True or False: A higher R-squared value always indicates a better model.

True
False

💡 Hint: Consider what R-squared doesn't tell us about model performance.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Hypothesize what could lead to a case where the RMSE is significantly higher than MAE and explain why.

💡 Hint: Think about how the calculation methods differ and their implications.

Challenge 2 Hard

Imagine you have a regression model with vast input variables. Discuss how R-squared can sometimes mislead you about the model's usefulness.

💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between variables and the concept of overfitting.
