Short Answer

What does a dev-error curve above the training-error curve indicate?

Question: Answer in one to three sentences using the usual relationship described by the source.

Sample answer: It indicates that dev error is higher than training error. Thus, the algorithm performs better on the training set than on the dev set.

Key points:

  • Dev error is higher than training error.
  • Performance is better on the training set.

Rubric: The answer should mention both the higher dev error and the algorithm's better performance on the training set.
