Two well-known (and related) measures of model complexity from statistics are the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and the Bayesian Information
Criterion (BIC).



When might AIC = BIC?

    You should try writing down the formulas and setting them equal to each other :) You will get the answer immediately.

As a reminder:



$$AIC = - 2 log mathcalL(hattheta|X)+2k $$



$$BIC = - 2 log mathcalL(hattheta|X)+k ln(n)$$



So for what values of $n$ is $2 = ln(n)$?

    (+1) I noticed that for $BIC$ you write $log$ and $ln$ in the same expression. Is this distinction necessary?

    Both logarithms have $e$ as their basis. It is just that log-likelihood (instead of ln-likelihood) is the term we use to describe the natural logarithm of the likelihood.
