Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a dataset for predicting customer churn with 2000 records where 5% are churners. How would you prepare this dataset for a classification model?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how best to maintain class proportions while preparing the data for modeling.

Question 2

Given a dataset containing continuous variables, discuss how you would choose between standardization and min-max scaling based on the distribution of your features.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Visualize or describe your data's distribution to inform your scaling choice.
