在有监督(supervise)的机器学习中,数据集常被分成2~3个,即:训练集(train set),验证集(validation set),测试集(test set)。

Ripley, B.D(1996)在他的经典专著Pattern Recognition and Neural Networks中给出了这三个词的定义。
- Training set: A set of examples used for learning, which is to fit the parameters [i.e., weights] of the classifier.
- Validation set: A set of examples used to tune the parameters [i.e., architecture, not weights] of a classifier, for example to choose the number of hidden units in a neural network.
- Test set: A set of examples used only to assess the performance [generalization] of a fully specified classifier.
