Question 1.
What does underfitting mean in machine learning?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how a model performs on both training and test datasets.
Question 2.
Name one sign that a model is underfitting.
Show hintHide hint
What do you observe in performance metrics?
3Question 3.
What is underfitting in machine learning?
- A model performing excellently on training data only
- A model that is too simple to capture data trends
- A model that overfits the training data
Show hintHide hint
Consider how accurately the model represents the data.
4Question 4.
True or False: A model that underfits performs poorly on both training and test datasets.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the relationship between model complexity and data representation.
Question 5.
Given a dataset with clear nonlinear relationships, design two model strategies that could address underfitting considerations. Explain your rationale for each.
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on what models can capture non-linearity effectively.
Question 6.
Create a scenario where underfitting can significantly impact performance metrics in a business application. Describe the consequences.
Show hintHide hint
Think about the importance of including multiple relevant features.
