Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define bias in machine learning.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the oversimplification of reality.

Question 2

Easy

What does high variance indicate?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how the model responds to minor changes.

Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does bias represent in a model?

  • Error from overfitting
  • Error from oversimplification
  • Error from high variance

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how simplification affects understanding.

Question 2

True or False: High variance models always perform better than low variance models.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the difference between training and unseen data performance.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have two models: Model A with high bias and Model B with high variance. Your dataset has a complex underlying structure. Which model would you prefer if your goal is to generalize well? Provide reasoning.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider what each model distinctly can learn from the complexity.

Question 2

Suppose you are working on a classification problem with imbalanced data (many instances of one class and very few of another). How does this scenario affect your bias-variance trade-off, and what measures could you take?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Reflect on how class representation influences learning.
