Microsoft Azure DP-100 Passing Score

Step 1: Define a cross-entropy function activation

When using a neural network to perform classification and prediction, it is usually better to use cross-entropy error than classification error, and somewhat better to use cross-entropy error than mean squared error to evaluate the quality of the neural network.

Step 2: Add cost functions for each target state.

Step 3: Evaluated the distance error metric.

Split Data partitions the rows of a dataset into two distinct sets.

The Relative Expression Split option in the Split Data module of Azure Machine Learning Studio is helpful when you need to divide a dataset into training and testing datasets using a numerical expression.

Relative Expression Split: Use this option whenever you want to apply a condition to a number column. The number could be a date/time field, a column containing age or dollar amounts, or even a percentage. For example, you might want to divide your data set depending on the cost of the items, group people by age ranges, or separate data by a calendar date.

Scenario:

Local market segmentation models will be applied before determining a user’s propensity to respond to an advertisement.

The distribution of features across training and production data are not consistent

Step 1: Implement a K-Means Clustering model

Step 2: Use the cluster as a feature in a Decision jungle model.

Decision jungles are non-parametric models, which can represent non-linear decision boundaries.

Step 3: Use the raw score as a feature in a Score Matchbox Recommender model

The goal of creating a recommendation system is to recommend one or more "items" to "users" of the system. Examples of an item could be a movie, restaurant, book, or song. A user could be a person, group of persons, or other entity with item preferences.

Scenario:

Ad response rated declined.

Ad response models must be trained at the beginning of each event and applied during the sporting event.

Market segmentation models must optimize for similar ad response history.

Ad response models must support non-linear boundaries of features.
