Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A model predicts whether a student will pass or fail the exam. In a class of 30 students, 20 passed (TP), 5 failed but were predicted to pass (FP), 3 were predicted to fail but actually passed (FN), and 2 accurately failed (TN). Construct the confusion matrix and calculate the accuracy.

πŸ’‘ Hint: First, create the matrix, then use the formula to find the accuracy.

Question 2

Consider a model that predicts whether emails are spam or not. If the model flags 70 spam emails correctly (TP), 30 emails incorrectly as spam (FP), and misses 10 actual spam emails (FN) while marking 90 genuine emails as not spam (TN), analyze the model's performance and suggest improvements.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on the performance metrics and how they can be improved.
