ROC Curve Intermediate

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

Foundations & Theory
Learning Rate Schedule Intermediate

Adjusting learning rate over training to improve convergence.

AI Economics & Strategy
Recall Intermediate

Of true positives, the fraction correctly identified; sensitive to false negatives.

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
Sensitivity Intermediate

Ability to correctly detect disease.

AI in Healthcare
Learning Rate Intermediate

Controls the size of parameter updates; too high diverges, too low trains slowly or gets stuck.

Foundations & Theory
Warmup Intermediate

Gradually increasing learning rate at training start to avoid divergence.

AI Economics & Strategy
Confusion Matrix Intermediate

A table summarizing classification outcomes, foundational for metrics like precision, recall, specificity.

Foundations & Theory
Specificity Intermediate

Of true negatives, the fraction correctly identified.

Foundations & Theory
Spurious Correlation Intermediate

Model relies on irrelevant signals.

Model Failure Modes
Takeoff Speed Advanced

Rate at which AI capabilities improve.

AI Safety & Alignment
False Negative Intermediate

Failure to detect present disease.

AI in Healthcare
Cross-Entropy Intermediate

Measures divergence between true and predicted probability distributions.

AI Economics & Strategy
AUC Intermediate

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

Foundations & Theory
ReLU Intermediate

Activation max(0, x); improves gradient flow and training speed in deep nets.

Foundations & Theory
Linear Quadratic Regulator Intermediate

Optimal control for linear systems with quadratic cost.

Foundations & Theory
Alpha Intermediate

Returns above benchmark.

AI Economics & Strategy
Gradient Descent Intermediate

Iterative method that updates parameters in the direction of negative gradient to minimize loss.

Optimization
AI Adoption Curve Intermediate

Organizational uptake of AI technologies.

AI Economics & Strategy
Adaptive Optimization Intermediate

Methods like Adam adjusting learning rates dynamically.

Foundations & Theory
Throughput Ceiling Intermediate

Maximum system processing rate.

AI Economics & Strategy
Simpson’s Paradox Advanced

Trend reversal when data is aggregated improperly.

Causal AI & Interpretability
Calibration Intermediate

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

Foundations & Theory
Bias Term Intermediate

Systematic error introduced by simplifying assumptions in a learning algorithm.

AI Economics & Strategy
Overconfidence Intermediate

Probabilities do not reflect true correctness.

Model Failure Modes
Log Loss Intermediate

Penalizes confident wrong predictions heavily; standard for classification and language modeling.

Optimization
Saddle Point Intermediate

A point where gradient is zero but is neither a max nor min; common in deep nets.

AI Economics & Strategy
Vanishing Gradient Intermediate

Gradients shrink through layers, slowing learning in early layers; mitigated by ReLU, residuals, normalization.

Foundations & Theory
Hessian Matrix Intermediate

Matrix of second derivatives describing local curvature of loss.
