'''Train-Test Split''' is a fundamental technique in machine learning used to evaluate the performance of a model by dividing the dataset into two parts: a training set and a testing set.

== What is Train-Test Split? ==

The dataset is split into:

* '''Training Set:''' Used to train the machine learning model.
* '''Testing Set:''' Used to evaluate how well the trained model performs on unseen data.

This helps measure the model’s ability to generalize beyond the data it was trained on.

== Why is Train-Test Split Important? ==

* Prevents '''overfitting''' by evaluating model on new data.
* Provides an unbiased estimate of model performance.
* Helps tune and compare different models reliably.

== Typical Split Ratios ==

Common split ratios include:

* 70% training / 30% testing
* 80% training / 20% testing
* 75% training / 25% testing

The exact ratio depends on dataset size and problem context.

== How Train-Test Split Works ==

1. Randomly shuffle the dataset to avoid bias.
2. Divide into training and testing subsets based on the chosen ratio.
3. Train the model on the training set.
4. Evaluate the model on the testing set using evaluation metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, etc.

== Example ==

If you have 1000 data samples and choose an 80-20 split:

* Training set size = 800 samples
* Testing set size = 200 samples

The model learns from the 800 samples, then its performance is tested on the 200 unseen samples.

== Limitations ==

* Results can vary based on the random split.
* May not represent all data patterns if dataset is small or imbalanced.
* Does not fully utilize the data for training.

== Related Techniques ==

* [[Cross Validation]] — for more robust evaluation using multiple splits.
* [[Stratified Sampling]] — to maintain class distribution in splits.
* [[Imbalanced Data]] — special care needed in splitting.
