Confidence intervals are a range of values, derived from sample data, that are used to estimate the true value of a population parameter. They provide an interval within which we can be reasonably certain that the true value lies, based on the level of confidence specified (commonly 95% or 99%). Understanding confidence intervals is crucial for making predictions and decisions in statistics, particularly when employing nonlinear prediction techniques, as they help quantify uncertainty in estimates.
