You are working on a regression problem using a simple neural network. You want to optimize the model's weights using gradient descent with different learning rate schedules. Consider the following pseudo code for training the neural network: Which of the following learning rate schedules would most likely result in the fastest convergence without overshooting the optimal weights? A: Constant learning rate of 0.01 B: Exponential decay with initial learning rate of 0.1 and decay rate of 0.99 C: Exponential decay with initial learning rate of 0.01 and decay rate of 0.99 D: Step decay with initial learning rate of 0.1 and decay rate of 0.5 every 100 epochs E: Step decay with initial learning rate of 0.01 and decay rate of 0.5 every 100 epochs F: Constant learning rate of 0.1
Medium Less complex decision tree model Model Complexity Overfitting	Solve
You are given a dataset to solve a classification problem using a decision tree algorithm. You are concerned about overfitting and decide to implement pruning to control the model's complexity. Consider the following pseudo code for creating the decision tree model: Which of the following combinations of parameters would result in a less complex decision tree model, reducing the risk of overfitting? A: max_depth=5, min_samples_split=2, min_samples_leaf=1 B: max_depth=None, min_samples_split=5, min_samples_leaf=5 C: max_depth=3, min_samples_split=2, min_samples_leaf=1 D: max_depth=None, min_samples_split=2, min_samples_leaf=1 E: max_depth=3, min_samples_split=10, min_samples_leaf=10 F; max_depth=5, min_samples_split=5, min_samples_leaf=5
Medium n-gram generator	Solve
Our newest machine learning developer want to write a function to calculate the n-gram of any text. An N-gram means a sequence of N words. So for example, "black cats" is a 2-gram, "saw black cats" is a 3-gram etc. The 2-gram of the sentence "the big bad wolf fell down" would be [["the", "big"], ["big", "bad"], ["bad", "wolf"], ["wolf", "fell"], ["fell", "down"]]. Can you help them select the correct function for the same?
Easy Recommendation System Selection Recommender Systems Collaborative Filtering Content-Based Filtering	Solve
You are tasked with building a recommendation system for a newly launched e-commerce website. Given that the website is new, there is not much user interaction data available. Also, the items in the catalog have rich descriptions. Based on these requirements, which type of recommendation system approach would be the most suitable for this task?
Easy Sensitivity and Specificity Confusion Matrix Model Evaluation	Solve
You have trained a supervised learning model to classify customer reviews as either "positive" or "negative" based on a dataset with 10,000 samples and 35 features, including the review text, reviewer's name, and rating. The dataset is split into a 7,000-sample training set and a 3,000-sample test set. After training the model, you evaluate its performance using a confusion matrix on the test set, which shows the following results: Based on the confusion matrix, what are the sensitivity and specificity of the model?

Reason #5

Designed for elimination, not selection

The most important thing while implementing the pre-employment Machine Learning Assessment Test in your hiring process is that it is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. In other words: you want to use the test to eliminate the candidates who do poorly on the test, not to select the candidates who come out at the top. While they are super valuable, pre-employment tests do not paint the entire picture of a candidate’s abilities, knowledge, and motivations. Multiple easy questions are more predictive of a candidate's ability than fewer hard questions. Harder questions are often "trick" based questions, which do not provide any meaningful signal about the candidate's skillset.

Reason #6

1 click candidate invites

Email invites: You can send candidates an email invite to the Machine Learning Assessment Test from your dashboard by entering their email address.

Public link: You can create a public link for each test that you can share with candidates.

About Machine Learning Developer Roles

Machine learning (ML) is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) that enables software programmes to grow increasingly effective at predicting outcomes without explicitly programming them to do so. Machine learning algorithms estimate new output values by using past data as input.

A machine learning (ML) developer is an expert in training models with data. Following that, the models are utilised to automate activities such as image classification, speech recognition, and market forecasting.

A machine learning developer creates a solution that is unique to each situation. The only way to get the best results is to thoroughly process the data and use the appropriate algorithm for the current situation.

Typical Machine Learning Developer/Engineer responsibilities include:

Understanding corporate objectives and creating models to assist them be accomplished, as well as measurements to track their success
Managing available resources such as hardware, data, and staff in order to meet deadlines
Analyzing the ML algorithms that may be utilised to tackle a particular problem and evaluating them based on their likelihood of success
Exploring and visualising data
Verifying and/or assuring data quality through data cleansing
Locating public datasets that might be utilised for training
Developing Validation Methodologies
Specifying the preprocessing or feature engineering that will be performed on a given dataset
Creating pipelines for data augmentation
Analyzing the model's flaws and devising solutions to overcome them

Kan denne test eller vurdering bruges til senior maskinlæringsingeniørroller?

For senior maskinlæringsingeniører kan du anmode om en brugerdefineret test. Inden for 48 timer vil vores emneeksperter tilpasse vurderingen i overensstemmelse med din jobbeskrivelse og anciennitetsniveau. En typisk test for seniorroller, ud over grundlæggende forhold, vil testen fokusere på at teste en kandidats evne til at:

Struktur ML -projekter
Identificer mangler ved forskellige maskinlæringsalgoritmer
Design en data om rengøring og dataremikling
Vælg ordentlige evalueringsmetrik for at forbedre modelydelsen

Sikker browser

Læs mere om Proctoring Features.

Hvordan fortolker jeg testresultater?

Den primære ting at huske på er, at en vurdering er et elimineringsværktøj, ikke et udvælgelsesværktøj. En færdighedsvurdering er optimeret for at hjælpe dig med at eliminere kandidater, der ikke er teknisk kvalificerede til rollen, den er ikke optimeret til at hjælpe dig med at finde den bedste kandidat til rollen. Så den ideelle måde at bruge en vurdering på er at beslutte en tærskelværdi (typisk 55%, vi hjælper dig med benchmark) og inviterer alle kandidater, der scorer over tærsklen for de næste interviewrunder.

Hvilken oplevelsesniveau kan jeg bruge denne test til?

Hver Adaface -vurdering tilpasses til din jobbeskrivelse/ ideel kandidatperson (vores emneeksperter vælger de rigtige spørgsmål til din vurdering fra vores bibliotek på 10000+ spørgsmål). Denne vurdering kan tilpasses til ethvert erfaringsniveau.

Får hver kandidat de samme spørgsmål?

Ja, det gør det meget lettere for dig at sammenligne kandidater. Valgmuligheder for MCQ -spørgsmål og rækkefølgen af spørgsmål randomiseres. Vi har anti-cheating/proctoring funktioner på plads. I vores virksomhedsplan har vi også muligheden for at oprette flere versioner af den samme vurdering med spørgsmål om lignende vanskelighedsniveauer.
