DOWNLOAD 4) Which of the following is not true about Classification Matrix? 1 point
VIDEOS
Most accuracy measures are derived from the classification matrix
Text Transcripts
Classification matrix is also called as confusion matrix

Interaction It summarizes only incorrect classifications .

Session

Rows and columns of the classification matrix correspond to the actual and predicted classes

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
It summarizes only incorrect classifications .

5) What are the axes of an ROC curve? 1 point

Vertical axis: % of true negatives; Horizontal axis: % of false negatives

Vertical axis: % of true positives; Horizontal axis: % of false positives

Vertical axis: % of false negatives; Horizontal axis: % of false positives

Vertical axis: % of false positives; Horizontal axis: % of true negatives

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Vertical axis: % of true positives; Horizontal axis: % of false positives

6) 1 point
Statement I: The first step is most classification algorithms is to estimate the probability that a case
belongs to each of the classes.
Statement II: if overall classification accuracy is of interest, the case can be assigned to the class with
the highest probability.
Which of the following is true?

Statement I is true and Statement II is false

Statement II is true and Statement I is false

Both the statements are true

None of the statement are true

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Both the statements are true

8) Average misclassification cost can be estimated by- 0 points

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:

9) Why asymmetric misclassification cost is considered as a part of performance metrics? 1 point

It changes the rule of classification, the cut off value in every field can be synchronised in that
manner.

It shows the scenario of costs with analysing data, which can minimize loss and maximize
profits.

It enhances the values for prediction, so accuracy increases averaging the error pruned
through the datasets.

It represents the processed data, that can be collected and models and various data
visualisation techniques can be applied.

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
It shows the scenario of costs with analysing data, which can minimize loss and maximize profits.

10)Which of them not included as a step when partitioning is done with oversampling. 1 point

Randomly select class 0 records to maintain the original ratio of class 0 to class 1 records for
validation partition.

Randomly select class 0 records for training partition equal to no. of class 1 records.

Half the records from class 1 stratum are randomly selected into training partition.

Validate the models using the training set of class 0 to class 1 to maintain the accuracy of the
validation sets.

No, the answer is incorrect.

Score: 0
Accepted Answers:
Validate the models using the training set of class 0 to class 1 to maintain the accuracy of the validation
sets.
