Definitionv1
Accuracy: the degree to which an agent's output corresponds
Accuracy: the degree to which an agent's output corresponds to the intended outcome, measured by the hit rate of actions taken and decomposed into bias (systematic error) and noise (random error)
Why This Is a Definition
This definition precisely establishes the semantic boundary of 'accuracy' within the curriculum context. It names the term, states its genus (degree of correspondence), provides differentia (hit rate of actions, decomposed into bias and noise), and distinguishes it from related concepts like speed and quality. It uses language consistent with how the curriculum uses the term throughout the lesson.
