Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Consider a highly imbalanced dataset where class A has 95% of the data while class B has only 5%. Your model returns a high accuracy but a low recall for class B. Explain the implications of these results and what you should do next.
💡 Hint: Reflect on the value of balanced performance metrics versus overall accuracy.
You are tasked with optimizing a model’s decision threshold based on ROC analysis. Describe the process you would use to select an optimal threshold and the factors you would consider.
💡 Hint: What are the costs associated with misclassifications in your context?
