What does RMSE stand for?

Root Mean Squared Error
Relative Mean Squared Error
Residual Mean Squared Error
Random Mean Squared Error

What is the formula for calculating RMSE?

$RMSE = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}(y_i - \hat{y}_i)^2}$
$RMSE = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}(y_i - \hat{y}_i)^2$
$RMSE = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}(y_i - \hat{y}_i)}$
$RMSE = \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^{n}(y_i - \hat{y}_i)$

What is the interpretation of RMSE?

The average absolute error between predicted and observed values
The square root of the average squared error between predicted and observed values
The sum of the squared errors between predicted and observed values
The difference between the maximum and minimum predicted values

How is RMSE related to other error metrics?

It is always greater than or equal to the mean absolute error (MAE)
It is always less than or equal to the mean absolute error (MAE)
It is always equal to the mean absolute error (MAE)
It is unrelated to the mean absolute error (MAE)

What are some limitations of RMSE?

It is sensitive to outliers
It is not interpretable in terms of the original units of the data
It is not a normalized metric
All of the above

How can RMSE be used to compare different regression models?

By selecting the model with the lowest RMSE
By selecting the model with the highest RMSE
By comparing the RMSE values of the models on the same dataset
RMSE cannot be used to compare different regression models

What are some alternative error metrics to RMSE?

Mean Absolute Error (MAE)
Median Absolute Error (MdAE)
R-squared (R²)
All of the above

When is RMSE a particularly useful error metric?

When the data is normally distributed
When the data is skewed or contains outliers
When the errors are large
When the errors are small

How can RMSE be used to tune the hyperparameters of a regression model?

By selecting the hyperparameters that minimize the RMSE
By selecting the hyperparameters that maximize the RMSE
By comparing the RMSE values of different sets of hyperparameters
RMSE cannot be used to tune the hyperparameters of a regression model

What is the relationship between RMSE and the coefficient of determination (R²)?

RMSE is the square root of 1 - R²
RMSE is equal to R²
RMSE is the inverse of R²
RMSE is unrelated to R²

How can RMSE be used to assess the performance of a regression model on new data?

By calculating the RMSE on a held-out test set
By calculating the RMSE on the training set
By comparing the RMSE to the RMSE of other models on the same data
RMSE cannot be used to assess the performance of a regression model on new data

What is the typical range of RMSE values?

0 to 1
0 to infinity
-1 to 1
-infinity to infinity

How can RMSE be used to detect overfitting in a regression model?

By comparing the RMSE on the training set and the test set
By calculating the RMSE on the training set only
By comparing the RMSE to the RMSE of other models on the same data
RMSE cannot be used to detect overfitting in a regression model

What is the relationship between RMSE and the mean absolute error (MAE)?

RMSE is always greater than or equal to MAE
RMSE is always less than or equal to MAE
RMSE is equal to MAE
RMSE is unrelated to MAE
