Bias and variane

Given the true model is

Y=f(X) + e

so expected squared error at a point x is

Bias shows how different between the average prediction and the true value

Variance show the everage between the prediction values and average of prediction value

 

High bias means underfitting. The intuition is that it learns a wrong set

High variance means overfitting. The intuition behide this is that it learns every sample by heart and lack of generalization
