Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a dataset with 80% of instances belonging to Class A and 20% to Class B. If applying K-Fold cross-validation, what issues might arise without stratification?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the implications of class proportions.

Question 2

In a scenario with a multiclass dataset with 5 classes, devise a method to implement cross-validation without misrepresenting any class.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how many examples of each class you would need in each fold.
