Definitions for "Error rate"
Ratio of the number of bits, elements, characters, or blocks incorrectly received to the total number of bits, elements, characters, or blocks transmitted.
The probability of a bit, character or block being in error within a given sample size.
A measure of the performance of a digital transmission system. It can be specified as a bit error rate (the probability of error per bit transmitted), as a block error rate (the probability of one or more errors in a specified-length block of bits), or in other forms such as percent error-free seconds.
The percentage of records within a file that contain validation errors. The maximum error rate permitted in files added to the database is 2%.
See Accuracy.
The rate of correct or incorrect predictions made by the model over the dataset. Error rate is usually determined by using an independent test set that was not used at any time during the learning process. More complex accuracy estimation techniques, such as cross-validation, are sometimes used, especially with datasets containing a small number of instances.
