Memorizing without overfitting: Bias, variance, and interpolation in overparameterized models

the bias and variance in contrast with the classical bias-variance trade-off. We also show that in contrast with classical intuition, over-parameterized models can overfit even in the absence of noise and exhibit bias even if the student and teacher models match. We synthesize these results to construct a holistic understanding of generalization error and the bias-variance trade-off in over-parameterized models and relate our results to random matrix theory.
