I applied via LinkedIn and was interviewed before Sep 2023. There was 1 interview round.

Round 1 - Technical 

(4 Questions)

  • Q1. Explain Projects worked on?
  • Ans. 

    Developed predictive models for customer churn and sales forecasting using machine learning algorithms.

    • Built a customer churn prediction model using logistic regression and random forest algorithms.

    • Implemented a time series forecasting model for sales prediction using ARIMA and LSTM neural networks.

    • Utilized Python libraries such as pandas, scikit-learn, and TensorFlow for data preprocessing and model building.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. Explain what are GANs?
  • Ans. 

    GANs are Generative Adversarial Networks, a type of deep learning model consisting of two neural networks - a generator and a discriminator.

    • GANs are used to generate new data samples that resemble a given dataset.

    • The generator network creates fake data samples, while the discriminator network tries to distinguish between real and fake samples.

    • The two networks are trained simultaneously in a competitive manner, improvin...

  • Q3. Any Research Paper published?
  • Ans. 

    Yes, I have published a research paper on the topic of machine learning algorithms for predictive analytics.

    • Published research paper on machine learning algorithms

    • Focused on predictive analytics

    • Presented findings at a data science conference

  • Answered by AI
  • Q4. Explain working of Neural networks?
  • Ans. 

    Neural networks are a type of machine learning algorithm inspired by the human brain's neural structure.

    • Neural networks consist of layers of interconnected nodes (neurons) that process input data and pass it through activation functions.

    • They use weights to adjust the strength of connections between neurons during training.

    • Neural networks are capable of learning complex patterns and relationships in data, making them su...
