Microsoft Azure DP-100 Release Date

Step 1: Sweep Clustering

Start by using the "Tune Model Hyperparameters" module to select the best sets of parameters for each of the models we're considering.

One of the interesting things about the "Tune Model Hyperparameters" module is that it not only outputs the results from the Tuning, it also outputs the Trained Model.

Step 2: Train Model

Step 3: Evaluate Model

Scenario: You need to provide the test results to the Fabrikam Residences team. You create data visualizations to aid in presenting the results.

You must produce a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve to conduct a diagnostic test evaluation of the model. You need to select appropriate methods for producing the ROC curve in Azure Machine Learning Studio to compare the Two-Class Decision Forest and the Two-Class Decision Jungle modules with one another.

Explanation:

In statistics, the Kendall rank correlation coefficient, commonly referred to as Kendall's tau coefficient (after the Greek letter τ), is a statistic used to measure the ordinal association between two measured quantities.

It is a supported method of the Azure Machine Learning Feature selection.

Scenario: When you train a Linear Regression module using a property dataset that shows data for property prices for a large city, you need to determine the best features to use in a model. You can choose standard metrics provided to measure performance before and after the feature importance process completes. You must ensure that the distribution of the features across multiple training models is consistent.

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: Augment the data

Scenario: Columns in each dataset contain missing and null values. The datasets also contain many outliers.

Step 2: Add the Bayesian Linear Regression module.

Scenario: You produce a regression model to predict property prices by using the Linear Regression and Bayesian Linear Regression modules.

Step 3: Configure the regularization weight.

Regularization typically is used to avoid overfitting. For example, in L2 regularization weight, type the value to use as the weight for L2 regularization. We recommend that you use a non-zero value to avoid overfitting.

Scenario:

Model fit: The model shows signs of overfitting. You need to produce a more refined regression model that reduces the overfitting.
