Q1. Explain classification
Ans. 
Classification is a machine learning technique used to categorize data into different classes or categories based on past observations.
• Classification involves training a model on labeled data to predict the class of new, unseen data points.

• Common algorithms for classification include logistic regression, decision trees, support vector machines, and k-nearest neighbors.

• Examples of classification tasks include spam email...read more

Q1. 1. What is the role of beta value in Logistic regression? 2. What is bias variance trade off? 3. How did you decide on the list of variables that would be used in a model?
Ans. 
Beta value in logistic regression measures the impact of independent variables on the log odds of the dependent variable.
• Beta value indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between the independent variables and the log odds of the dependent variable.

• A positive beta value suggests that as the independent variable increases, the log odds of the dependent variable also increase.

• A negative beta value sugges...read more

Q1. What is rag ? Increase context window of llms
Ans. 
RAG stands for Random Access Generator. Increasing context window of LLMS improves model performance.
• RAG is a tool used in natural language processing to generate random access to text data.

• Increasing the context window of LLMS (Large Language Models) helps the model to better understand the relationships between words in a sentence.

• For example, increasing the context window from 5 to 10 in LLMS can improve the accurac
