Basic Math Concepts – Mean Square Error usage in Neural Network Use Cases

Before diving into MSE and regression neural networks, learners should be familiar with:

  1. Basic Arithmetic – addition, multiplication
  2. Mean (Average) – summing values and dividing by count
  3. Exponentiation – squaring values
  4. Linear Equations – y=mx+b form (used in neurons)
  5. Understanding Error – difference between actual and predicted

Summary

Concept Explanation
Loss Function Measures how far predictions are from real outputs
MSE Best for regression-type outputs
Mathematical Form Average of squared differences
When to Use Predicting real, continuous numbers
