Cost function can refer to:

  • In economics, the cost curve, expressing production costs in terms of the amount produced
  • In mathematical optimization, the loss function, a function to be minimized
  • In Artificial_neural_networks, the function to return a number representing how well the neural network performed to map training examples to correct output.
