Principal component analysis (PCA) is an unsupervised machine learning algorithm that attempts to reduce the dimensionality (number of features) within a dataset while still retaining as much information as possible. This is done by finding a new set of features called components, which are composites of the original features that are uncorrelated with one another. They are also constrained so that the first component accounts for the largest possible variability in the data, the second component the second most variability, and so on. By using PCA, the impact of having a large number of features that are highly correlated with each other can be reduced, as the new feature space will have fewer dimensions and less redundancy. This can make the linear models more stable and less prone to overfitting. References:

 A deep convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier is a suitable architecture for image classification tasks, as it can learn features from the images and reduce the dimensionality of the input. A linear output layer that outputs the probability that an image contains a car is appropriate for a binary classification problem, as it can produce a single scalar value between 0 and 1. A softmax output layer is more suitable for a multi-class classification problem, as it can produce a vector of probabilities that sum up to 1. A deep multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier is not as effective as a CNN for image classification, as it does not exploit the spatial structure of the images and requires a large number of parameters to process the high-dimensional input. References:

Term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) is a technique that assigns a weight to each word in a document based on how important it is to the meaning of the document. The term frequency (TF) measures how often a word appears in a document, while the inverse document frequency (IDF) measures how rare a word is across a collection of documents. The TF-IDF weight is the product of the TF and IDF values, and it is high for words that are frequent in a specific document but rare in the overall corpus. TF-IDF can help improve the validation accuracy of a sentiment analysis model by reducing the impact of common words that have little or no sentiment value, such as “the”, “a”, “and”, etc. Scikit-learn is a popular Python library for machine learning that provides a TF-IDF vectorizer class that can transform a collection of text documents into a matrix of TF-IDF features. By using this tool, the Data Scientist can create a more informative and discriminative feature representation for the sentiment analysis task.

Switching to an instance type that has a CPU: GPU ratio of 6:1 will reduce the training costs by using fewer CPUs and GPUs, while maintaining the same level of performance. The GPU idle time indicates that the CPU is not able to feed the GPU with enough data, so reducing the CPU: GPU ratio will balance the workload and improve the GPU utilization. A lower CPU: GPU ratio also means less overhead for inter-process communication and synchronization between the CPU and GPU processes. References:
