Suppose on performing reduced error pruning, we collapsed a node and observed an improvement in the prediction accuracy on the validation set. Which among the following statements are possible in light of the performance improvement observed? (a) The collapsed node helped overcome the effect of one or more noise affected data points in the training set (b) The validation set had one or more noise affected data points in the region corresponding to the collapsed node (c) The validation set did not have any data points along at least one of the collapsed branches (d) The validation set did have data points adversely affected by the collapsed node
We have been given a dataset with n records in which we have input attribute as x and output attribute as y. Suppose we use a linear regression method to model this data. To test our linear regressor, we split the data in training set and test set randomly. Now we increase the training set size gradually. As the training set size increases, What do you expect will happen with the mean training error?

Assume that you are given a data set and a neural network model trained on the data set. You are asked to build a decision tree model with the sole purpose of understanding/interpreting the built neural network model. In such a scenario, which among the following measures would you concentrate most on optimising?

To test our linear regressor, we split the data in training set and test set randomly. What do you expect will happen with bias and variance as you increase the size of training data?
