Question 9
Refer to the exhibit:
The plots represent two models, A and B, being fit to the same two data sets, training and validation.
Model A is 90.5% accurate at distinguishing blue from red on the training data and 75.5% accurate at doing the same on validation data. Model B is 83% accurate at distinguishing blue from red on the training data and 78.3% accurate at doing the same on the validation data.
Which of the two models should be selected and why?
Model A. It is more complex with a higher accuracy than model B on training data.
Model A. It performs better on the boundary for the training data.
Model B. It is more complex with a higher accuracy than model A on validation data.
Model B. It is simpler with a higher accuracy than model A on validation data.
Correct answer: D
