Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Using a dataset containing both linear and non-linear patterns, describe how you would apply SRM principles to select an appropriate model.

💡 Hint: Consider how model simplicity might affect your choice when evaluating different patterns.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze the potential risks of using a model with very high complexity in a situation where training data is limited. Discuss how SRM could guide better decision-making.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how you could prevent overfitting given constraints in the data.
