🧐 Question

Easy

Gradient descent optimization
Gradient Descent
Solve
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:
 image
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:
 image
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

Easy

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:
 image
Based on the confusion matrix, what are the sensitivity and specificity of the model?
