• Residual – a measure of prediction error
• MAE – Mean Absolute Error =
• RMSE – Root Mean Square Error =
• Standard Deviation – a measure of the amount of
dispersion in a set of values. Small = close to the mean.
Expressed in the same units as the data, e.g.
lattice parameters a = 4 Å, 5 Å, 6 Å
mean = (4+5+6)/3 = 5 Å
deviation = -1, 0, 1; deviation squared = 1, 0, 1
sample variance σ2 = (1+0+1)/2 = 1
standard deviation σ = 1 Å
