Statistical metric characterizing the model prediction quality ( goodness of fit ) between the datasets of a given variable

Mean Square Deviation (MSD)


The RMSD is a square root of Mean Square Deviation (MSD) between the datasets of a given variable 

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyx
 and its estimator 
LaTeX Math Inline
body\hat x
.

The key benefit of using RMSD instead of MSD is that it is expressed in the same units as the base property (

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyx
) while MSD is expressed in square units of the base property.


The terms 
RMSD and RMSE are used in mathematics and engineering interchangeably.
