  • Q1. What is the difference between precision and recall
  • Ans. 

    Precision is the ratio of correctly predicted positive observations to the total predicted positives, while recall is the ratio of correctly predicted positive observations to the all observations in actual class.

    • Precision focuses on the accuracy of positive predictions, while recall focuses on the proportion of actual positives that were correctly identified.

    • Precision = TP / (TP + FP), Recall = TP / (TP + FN)

    • High prec...

  • Q1. Are all the decision trees same in a random forest ?
  • Ans. 

    No, decision trees in a random forest are different due to the use of bootstrapping and feature randomization.

    • Decision trees in a random forest are trained on different subsets of the data through bootstrapping.

    • Each decision tree in a random forest also considers only a random subset of features at each split.

    • The final prediction in a random forest is made by aggregating the predictions of all individual decision trees

  • Q2. How will you handle class imbalanced dataset to increase the f1 score ?
  • Ans. 

    Handling class imbalanced dataset involves techniques like resampling, using different algorithms, adjusting class weights, and using ensemble methods.

    • Use resampling techniques like oversampling the minority class or undersampling the majority class.

    • Try using different algorithms that are less sensitive to class imbalance, such as Random Forest or XGBoost.

    • Adjust class weights in the model to give more importance to the...

  • Q1. What is stemming and lematization
  • Ans. 

    Stemming and lemmatization are techniques used in natural language processing to reduce words to their base or root form.

    • Stemming is a process of reducing words to their base form by removing suffixes.

    • Lemmatization is a process of reducing words to their base form by considering the context and part of speech.

    • Stemming is faster but may not always produce a valid word, while lemmatization is slower but produces valid wo...

  • Q4. How to measure multicollinearity
  • Ans. 

    Multicollinearity can be measured using correlation matrix, variance inflation factor (VIF), or eigenvalues.

    • Calculate the correlation matrix to identify highly correlated variables.

    • Use the variance inflation factor (VIF) to quantify the extent of multicollinearity.

    • Check for high eigenvalues in the correlation matrix, indicating multicollinearity.

    • Consider using dimensionality reduction techniques like principal componen
