Question:-
1. Explain Support Vector Machines.
2. Explain linear regression with suitable examples.
3. Explain logistic regression with suitable examples.
4. Discuss confusion matrix with examples.
5. In a medical diagnosis scenario, there are two possible conditions for a patient:
➔ If a patient has cancer, the test correctly detects it 98% of the time (sensitivity).
➔ If a patient does not have cancer, the test correctly identifies them as cancer-free 97% of the
time (specificity).
➔ The overall prevalence of this cancer in the population is 0.8% (0.008 probability).
Using the Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) hypothesis, determine the probability that the patient
actually has cancer given the positive test result.
