fitting

Fitting or training in machine learning is the process by which a model learns from input data. Fitting is another word for training an ML model. Besides the ideal best fit or good fit, a model can get overfitted when overfitting occurs or it can get underfitted when underfitting occurs.

gradient descent

Gradient descent is a method of minimizing the machine learning model cost function in linear regression models. In the gradient descent method, the (internal) parameters of the ML model are tuned over several training iterations by taking gradual "steps" down a slope in the function graph, aiming towards a minimum error value. In gradient descent, ... Read more
