Which statement about outliers is true?

a)

outliers should be part of the training dataset but should not be present in the test data.

b)

outliers should be part of the test dataset but should not be present in the training data.

c)

The nature of the problem determines how outliers are used.

d)

outliers should be identified and removed from a dataset.

2.

A regression model in which more than one independent variables in a multiple regression model are correlated is

a)

regression

b)

correlation

c)

multicollinearity

d)

none of the above

3.

A measure of goodness of fit for the estimated regression equation is the

a)

multiple coefficient of determination

b)

mean square of error

c)

mean square due to regression

d)

none of the above

4.

If we decrease the input variable by one unit in a simple linear regression model. How many units of the output variable will change?

a)

reduced by Intercept

b)

increased by Intercept

c)

increased by Slope

d)

reduced by Slope

5.

The correlation in between mobile usage and exam score of a person found to be -2.2. What is your inference from the above statement?

a)

Mobile usage is positively correlated with exam score

b)

Mobile usage is negatively correlated with exam score

c)

None of the mentioned

d)

Need some other information

6.

The correlation coefficient for two attributes is 0.90. What does this value tell you?

a)

the attributes are not linearly related.

b)

as the value of one attribute increases the value of the second attribute also increases.

c)

as the value of one attribute decreases the value of the second attribute increases.

d)

the attributes show a curvilinear relationship.

7.

If two variables, x and y, have a very strong linear relationship, then

a)

there is evidence that xcauses a change in y

b)

there is evidence that ycauses a change in x

c)

there might not be any causal relationship between x and y

d)

None of these alternatives is correct

8.

In a regression analysis if r2(R Squared)= 1, then sum of squares error (SSE)

a)

must also be equal to one

b)

must be equal to zero

c)

can be any positive value

d)

must be negative

9.

The relationship between number of beers consumed (x) and blood alcohol content (y) was studied in 16 male college students by using least squares regression. The following regression equation was obtained from this study:

y= -0.0127+ 0.0180x

The above equation implies that:

a)

each beer consumed increases blood alcohol by 1.27%

b)

on average it takes 1.8 beers to increase blood alcohol content by 1%

c)

each beer consumed increases blood alcohol by an average of amount of 1.8%

d)

each beer consumed increases blood alcohol by exactly 0.018

10.

How do you choose the root node while constructing a Decision Tree?

a)

An attribute having high entropy

b)

An attribute having largest information gain

c)

An attribute having high entropy and Information gain

d)

None of the Mentioned

11.

Which of the following is FALSE about Random Forest and Adaboost?

a)

Random Forest aims to decrease variance and not bias

b)

Adaboost aims to decrease bias not variance

c)

Both Adaboost and Random Forest aim to decrease both bias and variance

d)

None of the above

12.

You’ve just finished training a random forest for spam classification, and it is getting abnormally bad performance on your validation set, but good performance on your training set. Your implementation has no bugs. What could be causing the problem?

a)

b)

You are randomly sampling too many features when you choose a split

c)

You have too few trees in your ensemble

d)

c)

weights and residual represented by hidden layers

d)

error added to the each node of the data
