Question 1.
What is K-Fold Cross-Validation?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how we divide the data.
Question 2.
How many times does the model train in K-Fold Cross-Validation?
Show hintHide hint
Consider what happens to each fold.
3Question 3.
What is the purpose of K-Fold Cross-Validation?
- To reduce model complexity
- To validate model performance
- To eliminate bias completely
Show hintHide hint
Consider what validation means in this context.
4Question 4.
T/F: In K-Fold Cross-Validation, the same dataset is used for both training and testing.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how the folds are used.
Question 5.
Given a dataset of 500 samples, determine the implications of using K-Fold Cross-Validation with k = 20 versus k = 5. Discuss trade-offs.
Show hintHide hint
Contrast the sizes and diversity of training sets with different values of k.
Question 6.
How would K-Fold Cross-Validation change if the dataset was highly imbalanced? Outline your approach to modify K-Fold for such cases.
Show hintHide hint
Consider adjusting the way folds are created to account for class distributions.
