Machine learning

a model fits noisy training data perfectly yet still predicts nearly optimally, which happens when the data has many unimportant directions that absorb the noise.

In machine learning, benign overfitting refers to a model fits noisy training data perfectly yet still predicts nearly optimally, which happens when the data has many unimportant directions that absorb the noise. This meaning comes from Bartlett (2020) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.[1]
