Neural network models are suitable for classification problems with a large number of features, because they can learn complex and non-linear patterns from high-dimensional data. They can also handle image data, which is likely to be the input for the human face detection problem. Neural networks can also be trained using transfer learning, which can leverage pre-trained models on similar tasks and improve the accuracy and efficiency of the model.

Missing values are a common problem in data analysis and machine learning, as they can affect the quality and reliability of the data and the model. There are various methods to deal with missing values, such as deleting, imputing, or ignoring them. One of the most common methods is imputing, which means replacing the missing values with some estimated values based on some criteria. For continuous variables, one of the simplest and most widely used imputation methods is to fill in the missing values with the mean (average) of the observed values for that variable in the entire dataset. This method can preserve the overall distribution and variance of the data, as well as avoid introducing bias or noise.

Preexisting bias is a type of bias that originates from historical or social contexts, such as stereotypes, prejudices, or discriminations. Preexisting bias can affect the data or the algorithm used for machine learning, as well as the outcomes or decisions made by machine learning. Preexisting bias can cause unfair or harmful impacts on certain groups or individuals based on their attributes, such as gender, race, age, or disability3. In this case, the software that uses machine learning generates lower employability scores for women and predicts that women, especially with children, are less likely to get a high-paying job. This indicates that the software has preexisting bias against women, which may reflect the historical or social inequalities or expectations in the labor market.

Adversarial attacks are malicious attempts to fool or manipulate machine learning models by adding small perturbations to the input data that are imperceptible to humans but can cause significant changes in the model output. In general, models that perform their tasks more accurately are less robust against adversarial attacks, because they tend to have higher confidence in their predictions and are more sensitive to small changes in the input data.
