ROC Curve Intermediate

Plots true positive rate vs false positive rate across thresholds; summarizes separability.

Foundations & Theory
Precision Intermediate

Of predicted positives, the fraction that are truly positive; sensitive to false positives.

Foundations & Theory
PR Curve Intermediate

Often more informative than ROC on imbalanced datasets; focuses on positive class performance.

Evaluation & Benchmarking
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
Actor-Critic Intermediate

Combines value estimation (critic) with policy learning (actor).

AI Economics & Strategy
Expectation Advanced

Average value under a distribution.

Probability & Statistics
Law of Large Numbers Advanced

Sample mean converges to expected value.

Probability & Statistics
Model Predictive Control Intermediate

Optimizes future actions using a model of dynamics.

Foundations & Theory
Predictive Coding Frontier

Learning by minimizing prediction error.

World Models & Cognition
Predictive Policing Intermediate

AI predicting crime patterns (highly controversial).

AI in Law
Key-Value Cache Intermediate

Stores past attention states to speed up autoregressive decoding.

AI Economics & Strategy
Value Function Intermediate

Expected cumulative reward from a state or state-action pair.

AI Economics & Strategy
Singular Value Decomposition Advanced

Decomposes a matrix into orthogonal components; used in embeddings and compression.

Mathematics
Value Misalignment Advanced

Model optimizes objectives misaligned with human values.

AI Safety & Alignment
Value at Risk Intermediate
