Definition: Decimating is a term used in the field of computer science and artificial intelligence, specifically in the context of machine learning. It refers to a situation where an algorithm or model becomes overwhelmed with data and cannot make accurate predictions due to its overwhelming computational load. In other words, it means that the number of instances being processed by an algorithm or model is too high for the available resources, which leads to a decrease in accuracy or efficiency. This phenomenon can be particularly problematic when dealing with large datasets or complex
