Inductive Bias

Inductive Bias

Before learning a model given a data and a learning algorithm, there are a few assumptions a learner makes about the algorithm. These assumptions are called the inductive bias. It is like the property of the algorithm.

For eg. in the case of decision trees, the depth of the tress is the inductive bias. If the depth of the tree is too low, then there is too much generalisation in the model. Similarly, if the depth of the tree is too much, there is too less generalisation and while testing the model on a new example, we might reach a particular example used to train the model. This may give us incorrect results.
