Scenario: Testing

You must produce multiple partitions of a dataset based on sampling using the Partition and Sample module in Azure Machine Learning Studio.

Box 1: Assign to folds

Use Assign to folds option when you want to divide the dataset into subsets of the data. This option is also useful when you want to create a custom number of folds for cross-validation, or to split rows into several groups.

Not Head: Use Head mode to get only the first n rows. This option is useful if you want to test a pipeline on a small number of rows, and don't need the data to be balanced or sampled in any way.

Not Sampling: The Sampling option supports simple random sampling or stratified random sampling. This is useful if you want to create a smaller representative sample dataset for testing.

Box 2: Partition evenly

Specify the partitioner method: Indicate how you want data to be apportioned to each partition, using these options:

Partition evenly: Use this option to place an equal number of rows in each partition. To specify the number of output partitions, type a whole number in the Specify number of folds to split evenly into text box.

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.

Box 1: Mutual Information.

The mutual information score is particularly useful in feature selection because it maximizes the mutual information between the joint distribution and target variables in datasets with many dimensions.

Box 2: MedianValue

MedianValue is the feature column, , it is the predictor of the dataset.

Scenario: The MedianValue and AvgRoomsinHouse columns both hold data in numeric format. You need to select a feature selection algorithm to analyze the relationship between the two columns in more detail.
