ViewQuiz 3: Multiclass Classification
Question 1: For a multiclass classification task that has 4 possible outputs, the sum of all the activations adds up to 1. For a multiclass classification task that has 3 possible outputs, the sum of all the activations should add up to ….
- Less than 1
The sum of all the softmax activations should add up to 1 whether the number of possible classes is 3, 4, 5 or any other number of classes. One way to see this is that if e^{z_1}=10, e^{z_2}=20,e^{z_3}=30ez1=10,ez2=20,ez3=30, then the sum of a_1 + a_2 + a_3a1+a2+a3 is equal to \frac{e^{z_1} + e^{z_2} + e^{z_3}}{e^{z_1} + e^{z_2} + e^{z_3}}ez1+ez2+ez3ez1+ez2+ez3 which is 1.

ViewQ2. Take a decision tree learning to classify between spam and non-spam email. There are 20 training examples at the root note, comprising 10 spam and 10 non-spam emails. If the algorithm can choose from among four features, resulting in four corresponding splits, which would it choose (i.e., which has the highest purity)?
ViewQuiz 2: Decision tree learning
Q1. Recall that entropy was defined in the lecture as H(p_1) = – p_1 log_2(p_1) – p_0 log_2(p_0), where p_1 is the fraction of positive examples and p_0 the fraction of negative examples.
At a given node of a decision tree, , 6 of 10 examples are cats and 4 of 10 are not cats. Which expression calculates the entropy H(p_1)H(p1) of this group of 10 animals?
ViewQ2. Recall that information was defined as follows:
H(p_1^{root}) – \left ( w^{left} H(p_1^{left}) + w^{right} H(p_1^{right}) \right ) H(p1root)−(wleftH(p1left)+wrightH(p1right))
Before a split, the entropy of a group of 5 cats and 5 non-cats is H(5/10) H(5/10). After splitting on a particular feature, a group of 7 animals (4 of which are cats) has an entropy of H(4/7)H(4/7). The other group of 3 animals (1 is a cat) has an entropy of H(1/3)H(1/3). What is the expression for information gain?

Q2. You are choosing between a decision tree and a neural network for a classification task where the input xx is a 100×100 resolution image. Which would you choose?
ViewA decision tree is because the input is unstructured and decision trees typically work better with unstructured data.
A decision tree is because the input is structured data, and decision trees typically work better with structured data.
A neural network, because the input is structured data, and neural networks typically work better with structured data.
Q3. What does sampling with replacement refer to?
