Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What does overall accuracy measure in a machine learning model?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the correctness of all predicted labels.

Question 2

Easy

Interactive Quizzes

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

Question 1

What does the ROC curve represent?

  • Trade-off between precision and recall
  • Trade-off between true positive rate and false positive rate
  • Accuracy of the model

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about which rates relate to classification performance.

Question 2

True or False: AUC of 0.5 suggests a model performs better than random guessing.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall what AUC signifies about model discrimination ability.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a highly imbalanced dataset where the positive class occurs only 5% of the time. Describe how you would approach evaluating a model trained on this data.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider which evaluation metrics are more informative in imbalanced cases.

Question 2

After evaluating your model on a held-out test set, you notice a significant drop in recall compared to your validation set. What might be the reasons for this, and how would you investigate further?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Reflect on how data distribution impacts model performance.
