1 Suppose you want to apply AdaBoost algorithm on Data D which has T observations. You
set half the data for training and half for testing initially. Now you want to increase the
number of data points for training T1, T2 … Tn where T1 < T2…. Tn-1 < Tn. Identify the
Correct option from the ones given below. Give reason for your answer.
A) The difference between training error and test error increases as number of
observations increases
B) The difference between training error and test error decreases as number of
observations increases
C) The difference between training error and test error will not change
D) None of These
2 Which of the following algorithm are not an example of ensemble learning?Give reason for
your answer.
3 Cross validation can be used to select the number of iterations in boosting; this procedure
may help reduce overfitting. Give reason for your answer.
A) TRUE B) FALSE
4 Which of the following will be true about k in k-NN in terms of variance? Why?
C) Cannot say
B What is Information Gain? Write down and discuss Inductive Decision Tree (ID3) 7
algorithm
OR
B What is Inductive bias? How does it affect the Decision Tree Algorithms? Give suitable 7
example.
B What is a Neural Network (NN)? With an example, discuss most suitable NN application. 7
OR
Q.3 A How does a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) improve classification? Write and discuss MLP 7
algorithm.
B What is Bayesian Learning? List 4& discuss one application suitable for Naïve-Bayes. 7
A Discuss Bayes Optimal Classifier with an example. Discuss the role of MAP Hypothesis. 7
OR
B What is Maximum Likelihood? How does it affect the Predicting probability? Give suitable 7
example.
A Are True Positive and True Negative enough for accurate Classification? If only False 7
Negative is reduced, does it lead to skewed classification? Give reasons for your answers.
Q.5 A What is Random Forest (RF)? Discuss reasons that improve RF based classification 7
compared to ID3
