+## Example: Model Selection via Train Validation Split
+In addition to `CrossValidator` Spark also offers
+[`TrainValidationSplit`](api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.ml.tuning.TrainValidationSplit)
for hyper-parameter tuning.
+`TrainValidationSplit` only evaluates each combination of parameters once
as opposed to k times in
+ case of `CrossValidator`. It is therefore less expensive, but will not
produce as reliable results.

I would change `reliable results` to `reliable results when the training
dataset is not sufficiently large`.
