What is called &amp;quot;control point&amp;quot;in the OP would be called the &amp;quot;training data&amp;quot;. Now whether polynomials are a good idea for any given problem is a matter of the nature of the data, but overfitting in this context means that the polynomial induced via the parameters A, B, C and D can generalize to further (unseen) data points or not. In the gaming context this is not a relevant question because…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/1808.03216/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
