Question 1.
What does k-fold cross-validation help us determine?
Show hintHide hint
Think about testing the model on different parts of the dataset.
Question 2.
Name one advantage of using a confusion matrix.
Show hintHide hint
Consider what details about classified outcomes it includes.
3Question 3.
What does k-fold cross-validation involve?
- Dividing the dataset into multiple subsets and training on them repeatedly
- Using the entire dataset for training
- Randomly selecting one subset for validation
Show hintHide hint
Remember how the whole data is utilized.
4Question 4.
True or False: Higher ROC-AUC values are indicative of poor model performance.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the definition of ROC-AUC.
Question 5.
Consider a scenario where you have a model that predicts heart disease based on several features. You've calculated an F1-score of 0.75. Given this value, what can you infer about your model's performance?
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on what F1-score balances between for classification tasks.
Question 6.
If your model has an R² value of 0.9, how would you interpret this in the context of a housing price prediction model?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how this reflects on the model’s explanatory power.
