- Q1. What is rnn and lstm
- Ans.
RNN stands for Recurrent Neural Network and LSTM stands for Long Short-Term Memory. They are types of neural networks used for sequential data processing.
RNN is a type of neural network that can process sequential data by maintaining a memory of past inputs.
LSTM is a type of RNN that can handle the vanishing gradient problem and can remember long-term dependencies.
LSTM has gates that control the flow of information int...
- Q2. What is precision and recall
- Ans.
Precision and recall are two important metrics used to evaluate the performance of a classification model.
Precision measures the proportion of true positives among all the predicted positives.
Recall measures the proportion of true positives among all the actual positives.
Precision and recall are inversely related and a trade-off exists between them.
A high precision means that the model is good at predicting positive ca...
- Q3. What is regularisation
- Ans.
Regularisation is a technique used in machine learning to prevent overfitting by adding a penalty term to the loss function.
Regularisation helps to control the complexity of a model and reduce the impact of irrelevant features.
It adds a penalty term to the loss function, which encourages the model to have smaller weights.
There are different types of regularisation techniques such as L1 (Lasso) and L2 (Ridge) regularisa...

- Q1. 1. How to choose optimum probability threshold from ROC?
- Ans.
To choose optimum probability threshold from ROC, we need to balance between sensitivity and specificity.
Choose the threshold that maximizes the sum of sensitivity and specificity
Use Youden's J statistic to find the optimal threshold
Consider the cost of false positives and false negatives
Use cross-validation to evaluate the performance of different thresholds
- Q2. 2. How to test time series trend break up?
- Ans.
To test time series trend break up, statistical tests like Augmented Dickey-Fuller test can be used.
Augmented Dickey-Fuller test can be used to check if a time series is stationary or not.
If the time series is not stationary, we can use differencing to make it stationary.
After differencing, we can again perform the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test to check for stationarity.
If there is a significant change in the mean or va...
