Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What is the formula for calculating accuracy?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how correct predictions are comprised.

Question 2

Easy

Interactive Quizzes

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

Question 1

What is the formula for accuracy?

  • (TP + TN) / Total
  • (TP + TN) / (TP + FN)
  • (TP + TN + FP) / Total

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the correct predictions versus all observations.

Question 2

True or False: Accuracy can effectively evaluate models in imbalanced datasets.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how class distribution can skew the metrics.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Imagine a situation where you have a model with an accuracy of 97%, but 90% of the data goes to a trivial class. Discuss the implications.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the balance between the classes in your evaluation.

Question 2

Evaluate a model with the following confusion matrix:
TP = 200, TN = 50, FP = 10, FN = 5. Calculate the accuracy and discuss whether it's a reliable metric.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Compute accurately, then reflect on class distributions.
