I have always heard about the importance of plotting bias-variance curve to see what complexity to pick.



So, I did the same when I wanted to pick an optimal parameter for ridge regularization with linear regression (fixed polynomial degree at 3). The curve is the least square cost function of the parameter lambda of regularization. However, the whole curve and minimum kept changing significantly each time I changed the random state of my split function (using one to three ratio for cross-validation).



How can I solve this problem and what value should I pick?

    What do you mean by bias variance curve here? That is not a plot of the loss w.r.t. lambda.

    I think you are talking about stats.stackexchange.com/questions/256141/… but that explains what linear regression automatically minimizes. Your plot of error vs hyperparam isnt quite that but anyway. Different lambda and min error are to some degree expected especially if your data is small and using only 2/3 to train.

    @SeanOwen The data base is around 1300 row and 80 feature. What would be the wise choice lambda to pick instead of a random value?

  • $begingroup$
    For each value of lambda, you'd evaluate the error on the validation set with the same split and choose the lambda with lowest error. You can augment this by averaging the validation error across different splits, or k-fold splits of the data set.
