Language Model Intermediate

A model that assigns probabilities to sequences of tokens; often trained by next-token prediction.

Large Language Models
Entropy Intermediate

A measure of randomness or uncertainty in a probability distribution.

AI Economics & Strategy
Cross-Entropy Intermediate

Measures divergence between true and predicted probability distributions.

AI Economics & Strategy
Fisher Information Intermediate

Measures how much information an observable random variable carries about unknown parameters.

AI Economics & Strategy
GAN Advanced

Two-network setup where generator fools a discriminator.

Diffusion & Generative Models
Propensity Score Advanced

Probability of treatment assignment given covariates.

Causal AI & Interpretability
Law of Large Numbers Advanced

Sample mean converges to expected value.

Probability & Statistics
Importance Sampling Advanced

Sampling from easier distribution with reweighting.

Probability & Statistics
Credit Scoring Intermediate

Predicting borrower default risk.

AI Economics & Strategy
AUC Intermediate

Scalar summary of ROC; measures ranking ability, not calibration.

Foundations & Theory
Data Leakage Intermediate

When information from evaluation data improperly influences training, inflating reported performance.

Foundations & Theory
Calibration Intermediate

The degree to which predicted probabilities match true frequencies (e.g., 0.8 means ~80% correct).

Foundations & Theory
Brier Score Intermediate

A proper scoring rule measuring squared error of predicted probabilities for binary outcomes.

Evaluation & Benchmarking
Dropout Intermediate

Randomly zeroing activations during training to reduce co-adaptation and overfitting.

Foundations & Theory
Next-Token Prediction Intermediate

Training objective where the model predicts the next token given previous tokens (causal modeling).

Foundations & Theory
Masked Language Model Intermediate

Predicts masked tokens in a sequence, enabling bidirectional context; often used for embeddings rather than generation.

Foundations & Theory
Hallucination Intermediate

Model-generated content that is fluent but unsupported by evidence or incorrect; mitigated by grounding and verification.

Model Failure Modes
Data Augmentation Intermediate

Expanding training data via transformations (flips, noise, paraphrases) to improve robustness.

Foundations & Theory
Synthetic Data Intermediate

Artificially created data used to train/test models; helpful for privacy and coverage, risky if unrealistic.

Foundations & Theory
Temperature Intermediate

Scales logits before sampling; higher increases randomness/diversity, lower increases determinism.

Foundations & Theory
Logits Intermediate

Raw model outputs before converting to probabilities; manipulated during decoding and calibration.

Foundations & Theory
Softmax Intermediate

Converts logits to probabilities by exponentiation and normalization; common in classification and LMs.

Foundations & Theory
Perplexity Intermediate

Exponential of average negative log-likelihood; lower means better predictive fit, not necessarily better utility.

Evaluation & Benchmarking
Bellman Equation Intermediate

Fundamental recursive relationship defining optimal value functions.

AI Economics & Strategy
Computational Learning Theory Intermediate

A theoretical framework analyzing what classes of functions can be learned, how efficiently, and with what guarantees.

AI Economics & Strategy
Hidden Markov Model Intermediate

Probabilistic model for sequential data with latent states.

Model Architectures
Markov Decision Process Intermediate

Formal framework for sequential decision-making under uncertainty.

AI Economics & Strategy
Generative Model Advanced

Models that learn to generate samples resembling training data.

Diffusion & Generative Models
Q-Function Intermediate

Expected return of taking action in a state.

AI Economics & Strategy
Score-Based Model Advanced

Learns the score (∇ log p(x)) for generative sampling.

Diffusion & Generative Models
