But you could also pick many samples and use, say, the median of your sample as the estimator. Or you could just guess the value 0 no matter what (this would be a bad estimator but it would still be an estimator!). The variance of the estimator is going to be the amount by which the estimator varies about ITS mean, not the true mean. The MSE is the amount that the estimator varies about its TRUE mean, which in this example is the number m. For an unbiased estimator, the MSE and the variance are the same. But often, it is not possible to find an unbiased estimator, or in cases a biased estimator might be preferred. I hope this answers the questions given here.

1. The mean, m, is a fixed number, but it is unknown. Now, suppose you take a sample from this random variable. If you try to estimate m, your estimator is taking the sample and using it to guess m. A simple case would be to take one sample and have your guess for a be whatever value is picked.

Someone has suggested that the page for Root mean square deviation (RMSD) be merged with mean squared error. I do not think that it makes sense to do this for several reasons: 1. MSE is a measure of error, whereas RMSD method for comparing two biological structures. 2. RMSD is used almost

Well, the MSE is a random variable itself that needs to be estimated. It's not just a number. If it has been estimated, it gives a measures of the variation of an estimator with repect to a known parameter. But it is not the variance as it also accounts for the bias of the estimator.
