Trident Information Systems Data Scientist Interview Questions and Answers

Q1. What is overfitting in machine learning?
Ans. 
Overfitting occurs when a machine learning model learns the training data too well, including noise and outliers, leading to poor generalization on new data.
• Overfitting happens when a model is too complex and captures noise in the training data.

• It leads to poor performance on unseen data as the model fails to generalize well.

• Techniques to prevent overfitting include cross-validation, regularization, and early stopping.

Q2. Overfitting accurs when a model learns the details.......etc
Ans. 
Overfitting occurs when a model learns the details and noise in the training data to the extent that it negatively impacts the model's performance on new data.
• Overfitting happens when a model is too complex and captures noise in the training data.

• It leads to poor generalization and high accuracy on training data but low accuracy on new data.

• Techniques to prevent overfitting include cross-validation, regularization, and...read more

Q1. What is the pivot table in Excel
Ans. 
A pivot table in Excel is a data summarization tool that allows you to reorganize and summarize selected columns and rows of data.
• Allows users to summarize and analyze large datasets

• Can easily reorganize data by dragging and dropping fields

• Provides options to calculate sums, averages, counts, etc. for data

• Helps in creating interactive reports and charts

• Useful for identifying trends and patterns in data

Q1. What is the full form of ETL?
Ans. 
ETL stands for Extract, Transform, Load. It is a process used in data warehousing to extract data from various sources, transform it into a consistent format, and load it into a target database.
• ETL stands for Extract, Transform, Load

• Extract: Involves extracting data from various sources such as databases, applications, and files

• Transform: Involves cleaning, filtering, and transforming the extracted data into a consiste...read more

Q1. What is rmse,mse?
Ans. 
RMSE and MSE are metrics used to measure the accuracy of predictive models by quantifying the difference between predicted and actual values.
• MSE (Mean Squared Error) is the average of the squares of the errors, calculated as: MSE = (1/n) * Σ(actual - predicted)².

• RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) is the square root of MSE, providing error in the same units as the target variable: RMSE = √MSE.

• Example: If actual values are [...read more

Q2. What is the application of lasso regression?
Ans. 
Lasso regression is used for feature selection and regularization in predictive modeling, enhancing model interpretability.
• Feature selection: Lasso can shrink some coefficients to zero, effectively selecting a simpler model.

• Regularization: It helps prevent overfitting by adding a penalty for larger coefficients.

• High-dimensional data: Particularly useful in scenarios with many predictors, like genomics.

• Example: In a dat...read more

Q3. How does supervised Ml is different from unsupervised ML
Ans. 
Supervised ML uses labeled data for training, while unsupervised ML identifies patterns in unlabeled data.
• Supervised ML requires labeled data (e.g., predicting house prices based on features).

• Unsupervised ML works with unlabeled data (e.g., clustering customers based on purchasing behavior).

• Supervised ML is used for classification and regression tasks.

• Unsupervised ML is used for clustering and association tasks.

• Example...read more
