In Machine Learning, minimizing training error alone is not enough.
A model that perfectly fits training data may fail in real-world scenarios. This phenomenon is called overfitting.
In this explanation, we break down Structural Risk Minimization (SRM) — a theoretical framework that prevents overfitting by balancing:
• Empirical Risk (training error)
• Model Complexity (VC dimension)
• Generalization Bound
• Nested Hypothesis Spaces
• The bias-variance tradeoff
You’ll understand why “perfect” models fail and how strategic simplicity leads to better generalization.
If you're learning Machine Learning theory, model selection, or regularization — this is a must-know concept.
