In machine learning, what does 'overfitting' refer to?

  • The model is too simple to capture patterns in the data
  • The model perfectly fits the training data but fails to generalize to new data
  • The model performs poorly on both training and test data
  • The model performs well on training data but poorly on new, unseen data
Overfitting occurs when a model fits the training data too closely, capturing noise and specificities that don't generalize well to new, unseen data. This can result in poor performance on test data.
