loss-functions

Loss functions are essential components in machine learning and deep learning, guiding the training process of models by quantifying the difference between predicted and actual outcomes. They serve as objective functions that algorithms aim to minimize or maximize, thereby improving model performance. Various types of loss functions exist, each suited for specific tasks, such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) for regression problems and Cross-Entropy Loss for classification tasks. Understanding and selecting the appropriate loss function is crucial, as it directly influences the effectiveness and accuracy of the model during training and evaluation.
