What does root mean square error tell you?
The Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) is one of the two main performance indicators for a regression model. It measures the average difference between values predicted by a model and the actual values. It provides an estimation of how well the model is able to predict the target value (accuracy).
Is a higher or lower RMSE better?
As the square root of a variance, RMSE can be interpreted as the standard deviation of the unexplained variance. It has the useful property of being in the same units as the response variable. Lower values of RMSE indicate better fit. RMSE is a good measure of how accurately the model predicts the response.
What is difference between MSE and RMSE?
RMSE is the square root of MSE. MSE is measured in units that are the square of the target variable, while RMSE is measured in the same units as the target variable. Due to its formulation, MSE, just like the squared loss function that it derives from, effectively penalizes larger errors more severely.
What is a good RMSE error value?
There is no correct value for MSE. Simply put, the lower the value the better and 0 means the model is perfect. Since there is no correct answer, the MSE's basic value is in selecting one prediction model over another.
