Введение

Среднеквадратичная ошибка (Root Mean Square Error, RMS Error, RMSE) — расстояние между двумя точками.

В случае если речь идет о привязке данных, в качестве точек между которыми измеряется расстояние могут выступать:

  1. Исходная точка и конечная точки (например результат трансформации), в этом случае RMSE будет показателем насколько исходная точка близка к конечной — текущая ошибка.
  2. Желаемое положение выходной точки (точка поставленная пользователем) и результатом ее трансформации (точка поставленная моделью). Трансформация — то или иное математическое преобразование исходных координат в конечные, примером такого преобразования может быть аффинная или полиномиальная трансформация. В данном случае RMSE показывает насколько используемая трансформация позволяет точно приблизить исходную точку к конечной, т.е. RMSE в этом случае — ошибка трансформации.

Как видно на иллюстрации ниже, выходные точки 1, 2, 3 поставленные оператором (синие) совпадают с трансформированными (расчетными) значениями (зеленые) и не видны из-за точного совпадения, а вот точка 4 поставлена не там, куда бы она попала используя ту же трансформацию, это дает возможность вычислить для нее RMSE, для точек 1, 2, 3 RMSE = 0.

Привязываемое изображение слева, изображение используемое в качестве источника координат (привязанное) справа.

Примечание: здесь и далее в статье, как и в ERDAS IMAGINE Field Guide, RMS определяется как расстояние (длина гипотенузы), что не совсем соответствует определению Root Mean Squared, так как отсутствует компонент усреднения, классический RMS должен вычисляться делением выражения под корнем на N измерений, в этом случае на 2. В данном случае удобнее называть RMS — расстоянием.

Ошибка RMS рассчитывается по следующей формуле, представляющей из себя формулу вычисления расстояния:

формула вычисления RMSE

где xi, yi — исходные координаты, xr, yr — конечные координаты

RMSE выражается как расстояние в единицах исходной системы координат, то есть, если вы привязываете только что отсканированную карту, то RMSE будет выражаться в пикселях (или долях пикселя), если вы производите дополнительную привязку снимка, то RMSE будет показывать значения в метрах. Значение RMSE равное 2 для определенной точки будет означать, что ее исходная координата удалена на 2 пикселя или метра от конечной (расчетной) точки.

Чтобы лучше понять когда и как можно получить RMSE при привязке можно использовать следующий алгоритм, иллюстрирующую процесс привязки с помощью аффинного преобразования:

  1. Получение изображения, например сканированием, изображение получает пиксельную систему координат X,Y (колонка, ряд).
  2. Расстановка трех точек с начальными и конечными координатами. Эти координаты указывают:
    • Начальные координаты — положение точки на непривязанном материале (координаты конкретного пиксела по системе ряд/колонка);
    • Конечные координаты — положение точки на привязанном материале, любом источнике координат, географических или спроектированных.
  3. Три точки — минимальное количество, необходимое для того, чтобы решить систему уравнений аффинного преобразования:
    x0 = a+ b*x + c*y
    y0 = d + e*x + f*y Решение уравнения заключается в нахождении всех шести коэффициентов, например решением системы уравнений:
    x1′ = a + b*x1 + c*y1
    y1′ = d + e*x1 + f*y1
    x2′ = a + b*x2 + c*y2
    y2′ = d + e*x2 + f*y2
    x3′ = a + b*x3 + c*y3
    y3′ = d + e*x3 + f*y3 Если точек меньше чем минимально необходимо — решить систему невозможно, нельзя найти коэффициенты трансформации и соответственно невозможно произвести пересчет координат. RMSE для точек также вычислить невозможно.
  4. Расстановка минимально необходимого количества точек для данного преобразования (трех) приводит к тому, что RMSE для каждой точки становится равна 0. Можно производить трансформацию. Однако в таком случае мы не можем сделать выводов о качестве точек, ведь для этого надо рассчитать RMSE, а значит….
  5. Ставим дополнительные точки. Появление новых данных как правило приводит к тому, что то положение, куда мы ставим конечную точку в процессе привязки и ее расчетное положение не совпадают. Это делает возможным расчет RMS ошибки.

С примером и математикой расчета полиномиального преобразования 2-ой степени можно прочитать в статье «Полиномиальные преобразования — вычисления и практика».

Помимо RMSE часто также можно увидеть также значения ошибки по одной из осей X или Y. Эти значения являются остатками (residuals) и могут быть рассчитаны для каждой точки. Изучение значений этих ошибок может помочь понять, почему привязанный материал смещен по одной из осей. Это проблема часто возникает при привязке данных полученных при съемке под углом (не в надир).

Уравнение вычисления RMS для каждой точки можно переписать как:

формула вычисления RMSE

где XR и YR — остаточные ошибки по X и Y соответственно.

Графически ошибки по X и Y, а также RMSE соотносятся следующим образом:

формула вычисления RMSE

Вычислив RMSE для каждой точки, можно также определить общую ошибку по X (Rx), Y (Ry) и общую RMSE (T) используя следующие формулы:

формула вычисления RMSE

где n — число контрольных точек, i — порядковый номер контрольной точки, d — расстояние между парой точек.

Связь со средним расстоянием

Другим, достаточно объективным, способом оценить точность привязки является среднее расстояние, которое очень похоже по формуле на RMSE, но является менее консервативным показателем, так как расстояния не возводятся в квадрат как в RMSE. Выразив расстояние через d, приведем для сравнения формулы вычисления общей RMSE (T) и среднего расстояния (MD):

формула вычисления RMSE

формула вычисления среднего расстояния

RMSE является более общеупотребимым в литературе.

Другим распространенным способом описания точности набора измерений являются квантили дробные стандартному отклонению (сигма).

Вклад точки в общую RMSE

Для того, чтобы вычислить вклад точки в общую ошибку (Ei), необходимо разделить RMSE этой точки (Ri) на общую RMSE.

формула вычисления RMSE

Допуск RMSE

В большинстве случаев, вместо того, чтобы усложнять тип трансформации (например переходить к более высоким порядкам полиномиальных преобразований) имеет смысл допустить некоторую ошибку. Величину допустимой RMSE можно представить как окно, окружающее точку с желаемыми координатами, положением расчетной точки внутри которого считается корректным. Например, если допуск RMSE равен 2, то расчетный пиксел может находится в двух пикселях от указанного оператором и являться допустимым. Величина допустимой ошибки зависит от типа и точности данных, задачи и точности контрольных точек.

Важно помнить, что RMSE указывается в пикселях, поэтому, если привязываются данные Landsat имеющие разрешение 30 метров и задача осуществить привязку с точностью не меньше тех же 30 метров, то RMSE не должна превышать 1.00 (пикселя).

Оценка RMSE

Если RMSE расчитана и найдена слишком высокой, есть 4 варианта решения проблемы:

  1. Найти и удалить контрольные точки с большой RMSE, подразумевая, что это наименее точные точки. Это чревато еще возникновением еще больших ошибок, если отбраковываемая точка — единственная на большой участок изображения.
  2. Увеличить допуск RMSE.
  3. Увеличить сложность функции трансформации, которая более точно будет соответствовать введенным точкам. RMSE точек при этом уменьшится, однако использование сложных криволинейных функций может привести к нежелательным сильным искажениям растра.
  4. Оставить только точки в которых Вы уверены, что они правильны.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In statistics, the mean squared error (MSE)[1] or mean squared deviation (MSD) of an estimator (of a procedure for estimating an unobserved quantity) measures the average of the squares of the errors—that is, the average squared difference between the estimated values and the actual value. MSE is a risk function, corresponding to the expected value of the squared error loss.[2] The fact that MSE is almost always strictly positive (and not zero) is because of randomness or because the estimator does not account for information that could produce a more accurate estimate.[3] In machine learning, specifically empirical risk minimization, MSE may refer to the empirical risk (the average loss on an observed data set), as an estimate of the true MSE (the true risk: the average loss on the actual population distribution).

The MSE is a measure of the quality of an estimator. As it is derived from the square of Euclidean distance, it is always a positive value that decreases as the error approaches zero.

The MSE is the second moment (about the origin) of the error, and thus incorporates both the variance of the estimator (how widely spread the estimates are from one data sample to another) and its bias (how far off the average estimated value is from the true value).[citation needed] For an unbiased estimator, the MSE is the variance of the estimator. Like the variance, MSE has the same units of measurement as the square of the quantity being estimated. In an analogy to standard deviation, taking the square root of MSE yields the root-mean-square error or root-mean-square deviation (RMSE or RMSD), which has the same units as the quantity being estimated; for an unbiased estimator, the RMSE is the square root of the variance, known as the standard error.

Definition and basic properties[edit]

The MSE either assesses the quality of a predictor (i.e., a function mapping arbitrary inputs to a sample of values of some random variable), or of an estimator (i.e., a mathematical function mapping a sample of data to an estimate of a parameter of the population from which the data is sampled). The definition of an MSE differs according to whether one is describing a predictor or an estimator.

Predictor[edit]

If a vector of n predictions is generated from a sample of n data points on all variables, and Y is the vector of observed values of the variable being predicted, with hat{Y} being the predicted values (e.g. as from a least-squares fit), then the within-sample MSE of the predictor is computed as

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}.}

In other words, the MSE is the mean {textstyle left({frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}right)} of the squares of the errors {textstyle left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}}. This is an easily computable quantity for a particular sample (and hence is sample-dependent).

In matrix notation,

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}(e_{i})^{2}={frac {1}{n}}mathbf {e} ^{mathsf {T}}mathbf {e} }

where e_{i} is {displaystyle (Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}})} and {displaystyle mathbf {e} } is the {displaystyle ntimes 1} column vector.

The MSE can also be computed on q data points that were not used in estimating the model, either because they were held back for this purpose, or because these data have been newly obtained. Within this process, known as statistical learning, the MSE is often called the test MSE,[4] and is computed as

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{q}}sum _{i=n+1}^{n+q}left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}.}

Estimator[edit]

The MSE of an estimator hat{theta} with respect to an unknown parameter theta is defined as[1]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}right].}

This definition depends on the unknown parameter, but the MSE is a priori a property of an estimator. The MSE could be a function of unknown parameters, in which case any estimator of the MSE based on estimates of these parameters would be a function of the data (and thus a random variable). If the estimator hat{theta} is derived as a sample statistic and is used to estimate some population parameter, then the expectation is with respect to the sampling distribution of the sample statistic.

The MSE can be written as the sum of the variance of the estimator and the squared bias of the estimator, providing a useful way to calculate the MSE and implying that in the case of unbiased estimators, the MSE and variance are equivalent.[5]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})=operatorname {Var} _{theta }({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} ({hat {theta }},theta )^{2}.}

Proof of variance and bias relationship[edit]

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]+operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}+2left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+operatorname {E} _{theta }left[2left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)right]+operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+2left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)operatorname {E} _{theta }left[{hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right]+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}&&operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta ={text{const.}}\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+2left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}&&operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]={text{const.}}\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}\&=operatorname {Var} _{theta }({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} _{theta }({hat {theta }},theta )^{2}end{aligned}}}

An even shorter proof can be achieved using the well-known formula that for a random variable {textstyle X}, {textstyle mathbb {E} (X^{2})=operatorname {Var} (X)+(mathbb {E} (X))^{2}}. By substituting {textstyle X} with, {textstyle {hat {theta }}-theta }, we have

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})&=mathbb {E} [({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}]\&=operatorname {Var} ({hat {theta }}-theta )+(mathbb {E} [{hat {theta }}-theta ])^{2}\&=operatorname {Var} ({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} ^{2}({hat {theta }})end{aligned}}}

But in real modeling case, MSE could be described as the addition of model variance, model bias, and irreducible uncertainty (see Bias–variance tradeoff). According to the relationship, the MSE of the estimators could be simply used for the efficiency comparison, which includes the information of estimator variance and bias. This is called MSE criterion.

In regression[edit]

In regression analysis, plotting is a more natural way to view the overall trend of the whole data. The mean of the distance from each point to the predicted regression model can be calculated, and shown as the mean squared error. The squaring is critical to reduce the complexity with negative signs. To minimize MSE, the model could be more accurate, which would mean the model is closer to actual data. One example of a linear regression using this method is the least squares method—which evaluates appropriateness of linear regression model to model bivariate dataset,[6] but whose limitation is related to known distribution of the data.

The term mean squared error is sometimes used to refer to the unbiased estimate of error variance: the residual sum of squares divided by the number of degrees of freedom. This definition for a known, computed quantity differs from the above definition for the computed MSE of a predictor, in that a different denominator is used. The denominator is the sample size reduced by the number of model parameters estimated from the same data, (np) for p regressors or (np−1) if an intercept is used (see errors and residuals in statistics for more details).[7] Although the MSE (as defined in this article) is not an unbiased estimator of the error variance, it is consistent, given the consistency of the predictor.

In regression analysis, «mean squared error», often referred to as mean squared prediction error or «out-of-sample mean squared error», can also refer to the mean value of the squared deviations of the predictions from the true values, over an out-of-sample test space, generated by a model estimated over a particular sample space. This also is a known, computed quantity, and it varies by sample and by out-of-sample test space.

Examples[edit]

Mean[edit]

Suppose we have a random sample of size n from a population, X_{1},dots ,X_{n}. Suppose the sample units were chosen with replacement. That is, the n units are selected one at a time, and previously selected units are still eligible for selection for all n draws. The usual estimator for the mu is the sample average

overline{X}=frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^n X_i

which has an expected value equal to the true mean mu (so it is unbiased) and a mean squared error of

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} left({overline {X}}right)=operatorname {E} left[left({overline {X}}-mu right)^{2}right]=left({frac {sigma }{sqrt {n}}}right)^{2}={frac {sigma ^{2}}{n}}}

where sigma ^{2} is the population variance.

For a Gaussian distribution, this is the best unbiased estimator (i.e., one with the lowest MSE among all unbiased estimators), but not, say, for a uniform distribution.

Variance[edit]

The usual estimator for the variance is the corrected sample variance:

{displaystyle S_{n-1}^{2}={frac {1}{n-1}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(X_{i}-{overline {X}}right)^{2}={frac {1}{n-1}}left(sum _{i=1}^{n}X_{i}^{2}-n{overline {X}}^{2}right).}

This is unbiased (its expected value is sigma ^{2}), hence also called the unbiased sample variance, and its MSE is[8]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} (S_{n-1}^{2})={frac {1}{n}}left(mu _{4}-{frac {n-3}{n-1}}sigma ^{4}right)={frac {1}{n}}left(gamma _{2}+{frac {2n}{n-1}}right)sigma ^{4},}

where mu _{4} is the fourth central moment of the distribution or population, and gamma_2=mu_4/sigma^4-3 is the excess kurtosis.

However, one can use other estimators for sigma ^{2} which are proportional to S^2_{n-1}, and an appropriate choice can always give a lower mean squared error. If we define

{displaystyle S_{a}^{2}={frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}={frac {1}{a}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(X_{i}-{overline {X}},right)^{2}}

then we calculate:

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} (S_{a}^{2})&=operatorname {E} left[left({frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}-sigma ^{2}right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} left[{frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}S_{n-1}^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}right)sigma ^{2}+sigma ^{4}right]\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{2}right]sigma ^{2}+sigma ^{4}\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}&&operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{2}right]=sigma ^{2}\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}left({frac {gamma _{2}}{n}}+{frac {n+1}{n-1}}right)sigma ^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}&&operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]=operatorname {MSE} (S_{n-1}^{2})+sigma ^{4}\&={frac {n-1}{na^{2}}}left((n-1)gamma _{2}+n^{2}+nright)sigma ^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}end{aligned}}}

This is minimized when

a=frac{(n-1)gamma_2+n^2+n}{n} = n+1+frac{n-1}{n}gamma_2.

For a Gaussian distribution, where gamma_2=0, this means that the MSE is minimized when dividing the sum by a=n+1. The minimum excess kurtosis is gamma_2=-2,[a] which is achieved by a Bernoulli distribution with p = 1/2 (a coin flip), and the MSE is minimized for {displaystyle a=n-1+{tfrac {2}{n}}.} Hence regardless of the kurtosis, we get a «better» estimate (in the sense of having a lower MSE) by scaling down the unbiased estimator a little bit; this is a simple example of a shrinkage estimator: one «shrinks» the estimator towards zero (scales down the unbiased estimator).

Further, while the corrected sample variance is the best unbiased estimator (minimum mean squared error among unbiased estimators) of variance for Gaussian distributions, if the distribution is not Gaussian, then even among unbiased estimators, the best unbiased estimator of the variance may not be S^2_{n-1}.

Gaussian distribution[edit]

The following table gives several estimators of the true parameters of the population, μ and σ2, for the Gaussian case.[9]

True value Estimator Mean squared error
{displaystyle theta =mu } hat{theta} = the unbiased estimator of the population mean, overline{X}=frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^n(X_i) operatorname{MSE}(overline{X})=operatorname{E}((overline{X}-mu)^2)=left(frac{sigma}{sqrt{n}}right)^2
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the unbiased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n-1} = frac{1}{n-1}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n-1})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n-1}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2}{n - 1}sigma^4
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the biased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n} = frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2n - 1}{n^2}sigma^4
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the biased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n+1} = frac{1}{n+1}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n+1})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n+1}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2}{n + 1}sigma^4

Interpretation[edit]

An MSE of zero, meaning that the estimator hat{theta} predicts observations of the parameter theta with perfect accuracy, is ideal (but typically not possible).

Values of MSE may be used for comparative purposes. Two or more statistical models may be compared using their MSEs—as a measure of how well they explain a given set of observations: An unbiased estimator (estimated from a statistical model) with the smallest variance among all unbiased estimators is the best unbiased estimator or MVUE (Minimum-Variance Unbiased Estimator).

Both analysis of variance and linear regression techniques estimate the MSE as part of the analysis and use the estimated MSE to determine the statistical significance of the factors or predictors under study. The goal of experimental design is to construct experiments in such a way that when the observations are analyzed, the MSE is close to zero relative to the magnitude of at least one of the estimated treatment effects.

In one-way analysis of variance, MSE can be calculated by the division of the sum of squared errors and the degree of freedom. Also, the f-value is the ratio of the mean squared treatment and the MSE.

MSE is also used in several stepwise regression techniques as part of the determination as to how many predictors from a candidate set to include in a model for a given set of observations.

Applications[edit]

  • Minimizing MSE is a key criterion in selecting estimators: see minimum mean-square error. Among unbiased estimators, minimizing the MSE is equivalent to minimizing the variance, and the estimator that does this is the minimum variance unbiased estimator. However, a biased estimator may have lower MSE; see estimator bias.
  • In statistical modelling the MSE can represent the difference between the actual observations and the observation values predicted by the model. In this context, it is used to determine the extent to which the model fits the data as well as whether removing some explanatory variables is possible without significantly harming the model’s predictive ability.
  • In forecasting and prediction, the Brier score is a measure of forecast skill based on MSE.

Loss function[edit]

Squared error loss is one of the most widely used loss functions in statistics[citation needed], though its widespread use stems more from mathematical convenience than considerations of actual loss in applications. Carl Friedrich Gauss, who introduced the use of mean squared error, was aware of its arbitrariness and was in agreement with objections to it on these grounds.[3] The mathematical benefits of mean squared error are particularly evident in its use at analyzing the performance of linear regression, as it allows one to partition the variation in a dataset into variation explained by the model and variation explained by randomness.

Criticism[edit]

The use of mean squared error without question has been criticized by the decision theorist James Berger. Mean squared error is the negative of the expected value of one specific utility function, the quadratic utility function, which may not be the appropriate utility function to use under a given set of circumstances. There are, however, some scenarios where mean squared error can serve as a good approximation to a loss function occurring naturally in an application.[10]

Like variance, mean squared error has the disadvantage of heavily weighting outliers.[11] This is a result of the squaring of each term, which effectively weights large errors more heavily than small ones. This property, undesirable in many applications, has led researchers to use alternatives such as the mean absolute error, or those based on the median.

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ This can be proved by Jensen’s inequality as follows. The fourth central moment is an upper bound for the square of variance, so that the least value for their ratio is one, therefore, the least value for the excess kurtosis is −2, achieved, for instance, by a Bernoulli with p=1/2.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In statistics, the mean squared error (MSE)[1] or mean squared deviation (MSD) of an estimator (of a procedure for estimating an unobserved quantity) measures the average of the squares of the errors—that is, the average squared difference between the estimated values and the actual value. MSE is a risk function, corresponding to the expected value of the squared error loss.[2] The fact that MSE is almost always strictly positive (and not zero) is because of randomness or because the estimator does not account for information that could produce a more accurate estimate.[3] In machine learning, specifically empirical risk minimization, MSE may refer to the empirical risk (the average loss on an observed data set), as an estimate of the true MSE (the true risk: the average loss on the actual population distribution).

The MSE is a measure of the quality of an estimator. As it is derived from the square of Euclidean distance, it is always a positive value that decreases as the error approaches zero.

The MSE is the second moment (about the origin) of the error, and thus incorporates both the variance of the estimator (how widely spread the estimates are from one data sample to another) and its bias (how far off the average estimated value is from the true value).[citation needed] For an unbiased estimator, the MSE is the variance of the estimator. Like the variance, MSE has the same units of measurement as the square of the quantity being estimated. In an analogy to standard deviation, taking the square root of MSE yields the root-mean-square error or root-mean-square deviation (RMSE or RMSD), which has the same units as the quantity being estimated; for an unbiased estimator, the RMSE is the square root of the variance, known as the standard error.

Definition and basic properties[edit]

The MSE either assesses the quality of a predictor (i.e., a function mapping arbitrary inputs to a sample of values of some random variable), or of an estimator (i.e., a mathematical function mapping a sample of data to an estimate of a parameter of the population from which the data is sampled). The definition of an MSE differs according to whether one is describing a predictor or an estimator.

Predictor[edit]

If a vector of n predictions is generated from a sample of n data points on all variables, and Y is the vector of observed values of the variable being predicted, with hat{Y} being the predicted values (e.g. as from a least-squares fit), then the within-sample MSE of the predictor is computed as

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}.}

In other words, the MSE is the mean {textstyle left({frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}right)} of the squares of the errors {textstyle left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}}. This is an easily computable quantity for a particular sample (and hence is sample-dependent).

In matrix notation,

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{n}}sum _{i=1}^{n}(e_{i})^{2}={frac {1}{n}}mathbf {e} ^{mathsf {T}}mathbf {e} }

where e_{i} is {displaystyle (Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}})} and {displaystyle mathbf {e} } is the {displaystyle ntimes 1} column vector.

The MSE can also be computed on q data points that were not used in estimating the model, either because they were held back for this purpose, or because these data have been newly obtained. Within this process, known as statistical learning, the MSE is often called the test MSE,[4] and is computed as

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ={frac {1}{q}}sum _{i=n+1}^{n+q}left(Y_{i}-{hat {Y_{i}}}right)^{2}.}

Estimator[edit]

The MSE of an estimator hat{theta} with respect to an unknown parameter theta is defined as[1]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}right].}

This definition depends on the unknown parameter, but the MSE is a priori a property of an estimator. The MSE could be a function of unknown parameters, in which case any estimator of the MSE based on estimates of these parameters would be a function of the data (and thus a random variable). If the estimator hat{theta} is derived as a sample statistic and is used to estimate some population parameter, then the expectation is with respect to the sampling distribution of the sample statistic.

The MSE can be written as the sum of the variance of the estimator and the squared bias of the estimator, providing a useful way to calculate the MSE and implying that in the case of unbiased estimators, the MSE and variance are equivalent.[5]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})=operatorname {Var} _{theta }({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} ({hat {theta }},theta )^{2}.}

Proof of variance and bias relationship[edit]

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]+operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}+2left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+operatorname {E} _{theta }left[2left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)right]+operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+2left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)operatorname {E} _{theta }left[{hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right]+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}&&operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta ={text{const.}}\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+2left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}&&operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]={text{const.}}\&=operatorname {E} _{theta }left[left({hat {theta }}-operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]right)^{2}right]+left(operatorname {E} _{theta }[{hat {theta }}]-theta right)^{2}\&=operatorname {Var} _{theta }({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} _{theta }({hat {theta }},theta )^{2}end{aligned}}}

An even shorter proof can be achieved using the well-known formula that for a random variable {textstyle X}, {textstyle mathbb {E} (X^{2})=operatorname {Var} (X)+(mathbb {E} (X))^{2}}. By substituting {textstyle X} with, {textstyle {hat {theta }}-theta }, we have

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} ({hat {theta }})&=mathbb {E} [({hat {theta }}-theta )^{2}]\&=operatorname {Var} ({hat {theta }}-theta )+(mathbb {E} [{hat {theta }}-theta ])^{2}\&=operatorname {Var} ({hat {theta }})+operatorname {Bias} ^{2}({hat {theta }})end{aligned}}}

But in real modeling case, MSE could be described as the addition of model variance, model bias, and irreducible uncertainty (see Bias–variance tradeoff). According to the relationship, the MSE of the estimators could be simply used for the efficiency comparison, which includes the information of estimator variance and bias. This is called MSE criterion.

In regression[edit]

In regression analysis, plotting is a more natural way to view the overall trend of the whole data. The mean of the distance from each point to the predicted regression model can be calculated, and shown as the mean squared error. The squaring is critical to reduce the complexity with negative signs. To minimize MSE, the model could be more accurate, which would mean the model is closer to actual data. One example of a linear regression using this method is the least squares method—which evaluates appropriateness of linear regression model to model bivariate dataset,[6] but whose limitation is related to known distribution of the data.

The term mean squared error is sometimes used to refer to the unbiased estimate of error variance: the residual sum of squares divided by the number of degrees of freedom. This definition for a known, computed quantity differs from the above definition for the computed MSE of a predictor, in that a different denominator is used. The denominator is the sample size reduced by the number of model parameters estimated from the same data, (np) for p regressors or (np−1) if an intercept is used (see errors and residuals in statistics for more details).[7] Although the MSE (as defined in this article) is not an unbiased estimator of the error variance, it is consistent, given the consistency of the predictor.

In regression analysis, «mean squared error», often referred to as mean squared prediction error or «out-of-sample mean squared error», can also refer to the mean value of the squared deviations of the predictions from the true values, over an out-of-sample test space, generated by a model estimated over a particular sample space. This also is a known, computed quantity, and it varies by sample and by out-of-sample test space.

Examples[edit]

Mean[edit]

Suppose we have a random sample of size n from a population, X_{1},dots ,X_{n}. Suppose the sample units were chosen with replacement. That is, the n units are selected one at a time, and previously selected units are still eligible for selection for all n draws. The usual estimator for the mu is the sample average

overline{X}=frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^n X_i

which has an expected value equal to the true mean mu (so it is unbiased) and a mean squared error of

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} left({overline {X}}right)=operatorname {E} left[left({overline {X}}-mu right)^{2}right]=left({frac {sigma }{sqrt {n}}}right)^{2}={frac {sigma ^{2}}{n}}}

where sigma ^{2} is the population variance.

For a Gaussian distribution, this is the best unbiased estimator (i.e., one with the lowest MSE among all unbiased estimators), but not, say, for a uniform distribution.

Variance[edit]

The usual estimator for the variance is the corrected sample variance:

{displaystyle S_{n-1}^{2}={frac {1}{n-1}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(X_{i}-{overline {X}}right)^{2}={frac {1}{n-1}}left(sum _{i=1}^{n}X_{i}^{2}-n{overline {X}}^{2}right).}

This is unbiased (its expected value is sigma ^{2}), hence also called the unbiased sample variance, and its MSE is[8]

{displaystyle operatorname {MSE} (S_{n-1}^{2})={frac {1}{n}}left(mu _{4}-{frac {n-3}{n-1}}sigma ^{4}right)={frac {1}{n}}left(gamma _{2}+{frac {2n}{n-1}}right)sigma ^{4},}

where mu _{4} is the fourth central moment of the distribution or population, and gamma_2=mu_4/sigma^4-3 is the excess kurtosis.

However, one can use other estimators for sigma ^{2} which are proportional to S^2_{n-1}, and an appropriate choice can always give a lower mean squared error. If we define

{displaystyle S_{a}^{2}={frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}={frac {1}{a}}sum _{i=1}^{n}left(X_{i}-{overline {X}},right)^{2}}

then we calculate:

{displaystyle {begin{aligned}operatorname {MSE} (S_{a}^{2})&=operatorname {E} left[left({frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}-sigma ^{2}right)^{2}right]\&=operatorname {E} left[{frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}S_{n-1}^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}S_{n-1}^{2}right)sigma ^{2}+sigma ^{4}right]\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{2}right]sigma ^{2}+sigma ^{4}\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}&&operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{2}right]=sigma ^{2}\&={frac {(n-1)^{2}}{a^{2}}}left({frac {gamma _{2}}{n}}+{frac {n+1}{n-1}}right)sigma ^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}&&operatorname {E} left[S_{n-1}^{4}right]=operatorname {MSE} (S_{n-1}^{2})+sigma ^{4}\&={frac {n-1}{na^{2}}}left((n-1)gamma _{2}+n^{2}+nright)sigma ^{4}-2left({frac {n-1}{a}}right)sigma ^{4}+sigma ^{4}end{aligned}}}

This is minimized when

a=frac{(n-1)gamma_2+n^2+n}{n} = n+1+frac{n-1}{n}gamma_2.

For a Gaussian distribution, where gamma_2=0, this means that the MSE is minimized when dividing the sum by a=n+1. The minimum excess kurtosis is gamma_2=-2,[a] which is achieved by a Bernoulli distribution with p = 1/2 (a coin flip), and the MSE is minimized for {displaystyle a=n-1+{tfrac {2}{n}}.} Hence regardless of the kurtosis, we get a «better» estimate (in the sense of having a lower MSE) by scaling down the unbiased estimator a little bit; this is a simple example of a shrinkage estimator: one «shrinks» the estimator towards zero (scales down the unbiased estimator).

Further, while the corrected sample variance is the best unbiased estimator (minimum mean squared error among unbiased estimators) of variance for Gaussian distributions, if the distribution is not Gaussian, then even among unbiased estimators, the best unbiased estimator of the variance may not be S^2_{n-1}.

Gaussian distribution[edit]

The following table gives several estimators of the true parameters of the population, μ and σ2, for the Gaussian case.[9]

True value Estimator Mean squared error
{displaystyle theta =mu } hat{theta} = the unbiased estimator of the population mean, overline{X}=frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^n(X_i) operatorname{MSE}(overline{X})=operatorname{E}((overline{X}-mu)^2)=left(frac{sigma}{sqrt{n}}right)^2
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the unbiased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n-1} = frac{1}{n-1}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n-1})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n-1}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2}{n - 1}sigma^4
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the biased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n} = frac{1}{n}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2n - 1}{n^2}sigma^4
{displaystyle theta =sigma ^{2}} hat{theta} = the biased estimator of the population variance, S^2_{n+1} = frac{1}{n+1}sum_{i=1}^nleft(X_i-overline{X},right)^2 operatorname{MSE}(S^2_{n+1})=operatorname{E}((S^2_{n+1}-sigma^2)^2)=frac{2}{n + 1}sigma^4

Interpretation[edit]

An MSE of zero, meaning that the estimator hat{theta} predicts observations of the parameter theta with perfect accuracy, is ideal (but typically not possible).

Values of MSE may be used for comparative purposes. Two or more statistical models may be compared using their MSEs—as a measure of how well they explain a given set of observations: An unbiased estimator (estimated from a statistical model) with the smallest variance among all unbiased estimators is the best unbiased estimator or MVUE (Minimum-Variance Unbiased Estimator).

Both analysis of variance and linear regression techniques estimate the MSE as part of the analysis and use the estimated MSE to determine the statistical significance of the factors or predictors under study. The goal of experimental design is to construct experiments in such a way that when the observations are analyzed, the MSE is close to zero relative to the magnitude of at least one of the estimated treatment effects.

In one-way analysis of variance, MSE can be calculated by the division of the sum of squared errors and the degree of freedom. Also, the f-value is the ratio of the mean squared treatment and the MSE.

MSE is also used in several stepwise regression techniques as part of the determination as to how many predictors from a candidate set to include in a model for a given set of observations.

Applications[edit]

  • Minimizing MSE is a key criterion in selecting estimators: see minimum mean-square error. Among unbiased estimators, minimizing the MSE is equivalent to minimizing the variance, and the estimator that does this is the minimum variance unbiased estimator. However, a biased estimator may have lower MSE; see estimator bias.
  • In statistical modelling the MSE can represent the difference between the actual observations and the observation values predicted by the model. In this context, it is used to determine the extent to which the model fits the data as well as whether removing some explanatory variables is possible without significantly harming the model’s predictive ability.
  • In forecasting and prediction, the Brier score is a measure of forecast skill based on MSE.

Loss function[edit]

Squared error loss is one of the most widely used loss functions in statistics[citation needed], though its widespread use stems more from mathematical convenience than considerations of actual loss in applications. Carl Friedrich Gauss, who introduced the use of mean squared error, was aware of its arbitrariness and was in agreement with objections to it on these grounds.[3] The mathematical benefits of mean squared error are particularly evident in its use at analyzing the performance of linear regression, as it allows one to partition the variation in a dataset into variation explained by the model and variation explained by randomness.

Criticism[edit]

The use of mean squared error without question has been criticized by the decision theorist James Berger. Mean squared error is the negative of the expected value of one specific utility function, the quadratic utility function, which may not be the appropriate utility function to use under a given set of circumstances. There are, however, some scenarios where mean squared error can serve as a good approximation to a loss function occurring naturally in an application.[10]

Like variance, mean squared error has the disadvantage of heavily weighting outliers.[11] This is a result of the squaring of each term, which effectively weights large errors more heavily than small ones. This property, undesirable in many applications, has led researchers to use alternatives such as the mean absolute error, or those based on the median.

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ This can be proved by Jensen’s inequality as follows. The fourth central moment is an upper bound for the square of variance, so that the least value for their ratio is one, therefore, the least value for the excess kurtosis is −2, achieved, for instance, by a Bernoulli with p=1/2.

Среднеквадратичная ошибка (Mean Squared Error) – Среднее арифметическое (Mean) квадратов разностей между предсказанными и реальными значениями Модели (Model) Машинного обучения (ML):

MSE как среднее дистанций между предсказаниями и реальными наблюдениями

Рассчитывается с помощью формулы, которая будет пояснена в примере ниже:

$$MSE = frac{1}{n} × sum_{i=1}^n (y_i — widetilde{y}_i)^2$$
$$MSEspace{}{–}space{Среднеквадратическая}space{ошибка,}$$
$$nspace{}{–}space{количество}space{наблюдений,}$$
$$y_ispace{}{–}space{фактическая}space{координата}space{наблюдения,}$$
$$widetilde{y}_ispace{}{–}space{предсказанная}space{координата}space{наблюдения,}$$

MSE практически никогда не равен нулю, и происходит это из-за элемента случайности в данных или неучитывания Оценочной функцией (Estimator) всех факторов, которые могли бы улучшить предсказательную способность.

Пример. Исследуем линейную регрессию, изображенную на графике выше, и установим величину среднеквадратической Ошибки (Error). Фактические координаты точек-Наблюдений (Observation) выглядят следующим образом:

Мы имеем дело с Линейной регрессией (Linear Regression), потому уравнение, предсказывающее положение записей, можно представить с помощью формулы:

$$y = M * x + b$$
$$yspace{–}space{значение}space{координаты}space{оси}space{y,}$$
$$Mspace{–}space{уклон}space{прямой}$$
$$xspace{–}space{значение}space{координаты}space{оси}space{x,}$$
$$bspace{–}space{смещение}space{прямой}space{относительно}space{начала}space{координат}$$

Параметры M и b уравнения нам, к счастью, известны в данном обучающем примере, и потому уравнение выглядит следующим образом:

$$y = 0,5252 * x + 17,306$$

Зная координаты реальных записей и уравнение линейной регрессии, мы можем восстановить полные координаты предсказанных наблюдений, обозначенных серыми точками на графике выше. Простой подстановкой значения координаты x в уравнение мы рассчитаем значение координаты ỹ:

Рассчитаем квадрат разницы между Y и Ỹ:

Сумма таких квадратов равна 4 445. Осталось только разделить это число на количество наблюдений (9):

$$MSE = frac{1}{9} × 4445 = 493$$

Само по себе число в такой ситуации становится показательным, когда Дата-сайентист (Data Scientist) предпринимает попытки улучшить предсказательную способность модели и сравнивает MSE каждой итерации, выбирая такое уравнение, что сгенерирует наименьшую погрешность в предсказаниях.

MSE и Scikit-learn

Среднеквадратическую ошибку можно вычислить с помощью SkLearn. Для начала импортируем функцию:

import sklearn
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error

Инициализируем крошечные списки, содержащие реальные и предсказанные координаты y:

y_true = [5, 41, 70, 77, 134, 68, 138, 101, 131]
y_pred = [23, 35, 55, 90, 93, 103, 118, 121, 129]

Инициируем функцию mean_squared_error(), которая рассчитает MSE тем же способом, что и формула выше:

mean_squared_error(y_true, y_pred)

Интересно, что конечный результат на 3 отличается от расчетов с помощью Apple Numbers:
