What is Mean Squared Error

Encyclopedia of Data Science and Machine Learning
Error measure for assessing the quality of a prediction (regression) which is determined as the mean value of the squared deviations between the predicted and actual values.

Abstract
The aim of the article is to demonstrate the use and benefit of machine learning (ML) in logistics by means of a significant, practice-relevant application: the prediction of estimated times of arrival (ETA) in intermodal transport chains. Based on a real use case, the article first provides an approach for the methodical procedure for the implementation of ETA predictions and a description of essential development phases. Subsequently, a cross-actor prediction approach for the combined road-rail transport of containers in the port hinterland is designed, and ML-based prediction models for specific logistics processes are prototypically implemented and evaluated. Finally, an outlook on future research directions is given.

Prognostication of Crime Using Bagging Regression Model: A Case Study of London
How closely a regression line resembles the Mean Squared Error determines a set of data points. A risk function corresponds to the squared error loss’s expected value. The average, more particularly the mean, of errors squared from data related to a function is used to determine to mean square error.

Forecasting Hotel Occupancy Rates With Artificial Neural Networks in the COVID-19 Process
Is a measure of the accuracy of the predicted results ( Sood and Jain, 2017 ). If the MSE is zero, it means there is no error ( Al-Shayea, 2011 ).
