Previous projects based questions

The test consisted 1 programming question, 2 SQL questions, 2 Python questions, and 10 ML questions. The difficulty level was from easy to medium range. However, the platform was very slow and it was a timed test. They should either conduct the test in a friendly platform or increase the time allotted for each section.

Q1. How to handle imbalanced data in text analytics?
Ans. 
Imbalanced data in text analytics can be handled by techniques like oversampling, undersampling, and SMOTE.
• Use oversampling to increase the number of instances in the minority class

• Use undersampling to decrease the number of instances in the majority class

• Use SMOTE to generate synthetic samples for the minority class

• Use cost-sensitive learning algorithms to assign higher misclassification costs to the minority class

• Use...read more

Q1. Difference between Ridge and Lasso regression
Ans. 
Ridge and Lasso regression are both regularization techniques used in linear regression to prevent overfitting.
• Ridge regression adds a penalty equivalent to the square of the magnitude of coefficients, while Lasso regression adds a penalty equivalent to the absolute value of the magnitude of coefficients.

• Ridge regression shrinks the coefficients towards zero but never exactly to zero, while Lasso regression can shrink ...read more

Q1. Difference between boosting and bagging
Ans. 
Boosting focuses on improving the performance of weak learners sequentially, while bagging uses parallel ensemble learning with bootstrapping.
• Boosting combines multiple weak learners to create a strong learner by giving more weight to misclassified instances in each iteration.

• Bagging creates multiple subsets of the training data through bootstrapping and trains each subset independently to reduce variance.

• Examples: Ada...read more
