Question 1.
What does ROC stand for?
Show hintHide hint
Think about a characteristic that helps in evaluating models.
Question 2.
What is the purpose of drawing a ROC curve?
Show hintHide hint
Focus on visualization related to model evaluation.
3Question 3.
What does a higher AUC indicate?
- Poor model performance
- Random guessing
- Better model performance
- Worse model performance
Show hintHide hint
Remember what an AUC close to 1 means.
4Question 4.
True or False: The ROC Curve can be used to compare multiple classification models.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about what the ROC Curve illustrates in terms of models.
Question 5.
You have trained two classifiers with the following AUC values: Classifier A = 0.85, Classifier B = 0.60. What conclusions can you draw about their performances?
Show hintHide hint
Recall that higher AUC means better classification ability.
Question 6.
Create a scenario where a model with low accuracy (e.g., 55%) could still have a high AUC value. Explain why AUC can sometimes be misleading.
Show hintHide hint
Think about imbalanced datasets and the trade-off between precision and recall.
