Interactive Quizzes

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

Question 1

What does a higher AUC indicate?

  • Poor model performance
  • Random guessing
  • Better model performance
  • Worse model performance

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember what an AUC close to 1 means.

Question 2

True or False: The ROC Curve can be used to compare multiple classification models.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what the ROC Curve illustrates in terms of models.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have trained two classifiers with the following AUC values: Classifier A = 0.85, Classifier B = 0.60. What conclusions can you draw about their performances?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall that higher AUC means better classification ability.

Question 2

Create a scenario where a model with low accuracy (e.g., 55%) could still have a high AUC value. Explain why AUC can sometimes be misleading.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about imbalanced datasets and the trade-off between precision and recall.
