Quiz for Lab 09: Decision Trees. Answer every task, then press Check answers at the bottom: each answer is marked, the explanations appear, and you get a score per skill.

Assumptions unless stated otherwise

  • Lower entropy means a purer node; entropy uses \(\log_2\) and is measured in bits.
  • For ID3, the split with the largest information gain is preferred.
  • In classification a leaf predicts a class; in regression a leaf predicts a numeric value.
  • Tree building is greedy: each split is chosen locally.

How answers are scored

  • Numbers: type the value as a decimal, e.g. 0.55.
  • Rows: one choice per row; each correct row earns its share of the points.
  • Select all that apply: scores only when the selection is exactly right.
  • Your answers are saved in this browser only, so you can leave and come back. Nothing is sent anywhere.
