Learning curves show how training and validation performance changes as the amount of training data or training time changes.
Validation curves show how validation performance responds to a chosen model setting, helping distinguish data limitations from poor model complexity.
A learning curve plots model performance against the amount of training data or, in other settings, training time or optimization steps. A common version repeatedly fits on larger training subsets and evaluates both training and validation performance. Label the horizontal axis because adding examples and running more epochs answer different questions. When training and validation performance are both poor and close, the model may be underfitting. More data of the same kind may not solve the problem; a more expressive model, better features, or less restrictive regularization may be needed. When training performance is much better than validation performance, the gap points to overfitting. More representative data, stronger regularization, a simpler model, or better data handling may reduce it. The curve is diagnostic, not a verdict. If validation performance continues to improve at the largest sample size, additional data may help, but benefit depends on whether new examples resemble the target population. A plateau can indicate diminishing returns, limited model capacity, label noise, or a mismatch between training and evaluation distributions. Repeated splits or error bars help show whether trends are stable. A validation curve varies a hyperparameter and plots validation performance against its values. It can reveal that a model is too constrained at one end and overfits at the other. A shallow tree may miss structure, while an excessively deep tree can memorize training cases. Keep other choices and the evaluation protocol fixed when interpreting the result. The validation set guides model selection, so repeated tuning can gradually overfit that set. Reserve a separate test set for final evaluation, and use cross-validation when data is limited. For time-dependent or grouped data, splits must respect chronology or groups. A random split can produce a polished curve that measures leakage instead of generalization.

Experiment tools can make curves reproducible by saving the split, configuration, metric, and uncertainty at each point. Teams may use learning curves to inform data collection, estimating whether labeling another cohort could change performance enough to justify its cost. Such estimates depend on future examples resembling the sample and on keeping the training recipe comparable. After deployment, curves can help detect changing populations, but teams need representative new labels rather than indefinite extrapolation from old validation evidence. A curve should support decisions while leaving room for uncertainty and domain review.
A spam filter's training and validation scores both rise as labeled messages are added, suggesting more representative examples may help.
A neural network scores much better on training than held-out data, exposing an overfitting gap that could justify regularization or simplification.
A team plots validation error against tree depth, holding the split fixed to see where the tree moves from underfitting toward overfitting.
An engineer repeats curve points across splits and plots variation so a small validation sample does not make noisy differences appear certain.

The common form varies the number of examples available for fitting.
Low performance on both seen and held-out data suggests the fit itself is weak.
The model may fit seen examples better than unseen examples.
It plots validation performance while a chosen model setting changes.
Repeatedly choosing against validation results can overfit those results.
