I found these notes referencing smoothing splines in elements of mathematical learning. I'm just confused why (3) is False because I really can't think of a counter example
- λ can be chosen by cross-validation : True
- If λ = 0 and $x_i$ are different, smoothing splines will lead to a training error of zero: True
- Smoothing splines will always lead to continuous $\hat{f}$ : False
- Larger λ correspond to less flexible models: True
