Mean Square Error Deviation (MSEMSD)


The RMSD is a square root of Mean Square Error Deviation (MSEMSD) 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 MSE is MSD is that it is expressed in the same units as the base property (

bodyx
) while MSE is MSD is expressed in square units of the base property.


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