Question 1

Which curve is better for evaluating imbalanced datasets?

  • ROC Curve
  • Precision-Recall Curve
  • None

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall which class is more important in imbalanced data.

Question 2

True or False: AUC of 0.7 indicates a good classifier.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the benchmarks for AUC values.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Explain why the Precision-Recall curve is often preferred over the ROC curve when evaluating classifiers on imbalanced datasets.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how true negatives can affect the representation in traditional metrics.

Question 2

You have a dataset with a substantial imbalance between classes. Discuss the implications of hyperparameter tuning using Random Search versus Grid Search in this context.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the computational expense of exploring all parameter combinations when you suspect some have more impact.
