Prepare for the MLS-C01 AWS Certified Machine Learning - Specialty exam with CertQueen's independently developed study resources. Review important concepts, practice scenario-based questions, and use clear explanations to identify areas that require further study.

Question#1

A global bank requires a solution to predict whether customers will leave the bank and choose another bank. The bank is using a dataset to train a model to predict customer loss. The training dataset has 1,000 rows. The training dataset includes 100 instances of customers who left the bank.
A machine learning (ML) specialist is using Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler to train a churn prediction model by using a SageMaker training job. After training, the ML specialist notices that the model returns only false results. The ML specialist must correct the model so that it returns more accurate predictions.
Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Apply anomaly detection to remove outliers from the training dataset before training.
B. Apply Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) to the training dataset before training.
C. Apply normalization to the features of the training dataset before training.
D. Apply undersampling to the training dataset before training.

Question#2

An ecommerce company wants to use machine learning (ML) to monitor fraudulent transactions on its website. The company is using Amazon SageMaker to research, train, deploy, and monitor the ML models.
The historical transactions data is in a .csv file that is stored in Amazon S3 The data contains features such as the user's IP address, navigation time, average time on each page, and the number of clicks for ....session. There is no label in the data to indicate if a transaction is anomalous.
Which models should the company use in combination to detect anomalous transactions? (Select TWO.)

A. IP Insights
B. K-nearest neighbors (k-NN)
C. Linear learner with a logistic function
D. Random Cut Forest (RCF)
E. XGBoost

Question#3

An ecommerce company sends a weekly email newsletter to all of its customers. Management has hired a team of writers to create additional targeted content. A data scientist needs to identify five customer segments based on age, income, and location. The customers’ current segmentation is unknown. The data scientist previously built an XGBoost model to predict the likelihood of a customer responding to an email based on age, income, and location.
Why does the XGBoost model NOT meet the current requirements, and how can this be fixed?

A. The XGBoost model provides a true/false binary output. Apply principal component analysis (PCA) with five feature dimensions to predict a segment.
B. The XGBoost model provides a true/false binary output. Increase the number of classes the XGBoost model predicts to five classes to predict a segment.
C. The XGBoost model is a supervised machine learning algorithm. Train a k-Nearest-Neighbors (kNN) model with K = 5 on the same dataset to predict a segment.
D. The XGBoost model is a supervised machine learning algorithm. Train a k-means model with K = 5 on the same dataset to predict a segment.

Question#4

A Data Scientist needs to analyze employment data. The dataset contains approximately 10 million
observations on people across 10 different features. During the preliminary analysis, the Data Scientist notices that income and age distributions are not normal. While income levels shows a right skew as expected, with fewer individuals having a higher income, the age distribution also show a right skew, with fewer older individuals participating in the workforce.
Which feature transformations can the Data Scientist apply to fix the incorrectly skewed data? (Choose two.)

A. Cross-validation
B. Numerical value binning
C. High-degree polynomial transformation
D. Logarithmic transformation
E. One hot encoding

Question#5

A Data Scientist is developing a machine learning model to predict future patient outcomes based on information collected about each patient and their treatment plans. The model should output a continuous value as its prediction. The data available includes labeled outcomes for a set of 4,000 patients. The study was conducted on a group of individuals over the age of 65 who have a particular disease that is known to worsen with age.
Initial models have performed poorly. While reviewing the underlying data, the Data Scientist notices that, out of 4,000 patient observations, there are 450 where the patient age has been input as 0. The other features for these observations appear normal compared to the rest of the sample population.
How should the Data Scientist correct this issue?

A. Drop all records from the dataset where age has been set to 0.
B. Replace the age field value for records with a value of 0 with the mean or median value from the dataset.
C. Drop the age feature from the dataset and train the model using the rest of the features.
D. Use k-means clustering to handle missing features.
