Assume that you can observe age and quantity and you want to predict War Create a decision tree with War as the outcome variable. Use 10-fold cross-validation. You'll have to change War into a "factor" even though it is not a character. I provided an example of this in the ACS code recently. What is the accuracy rate of the final decision tree? Do not answer in percentage terms. Type it in the way it is listed in R output.

1 dat$WarFactor <- as.factor(dat$War) dat$ageFactor <- as.factor(dat$age) dat$QuantityFactor <- as.factor(dat$Quantity) ## it's already all numbers, so you don't have to ## worry about converting character variables to levels trainList <- createDataPartition(y=dat$WarFactor, p=.5, list = FALSE) trainData <- dat[trainList,] testData <- dat[-trainList,] trctrl <- trainControl(method = "repeatedcv", number = 5) model.rpart <- train(WarFactor ~ ageFactor + QuantityFactor, method = "rpart", data = trainData, trControl = trctrl, tuneLength = 20) model.rpart library(rpart.plot) rpart.plot(model.rpart$finalModel)

The key question, according to Cowen, is

Are you good at working with intelligent machines?

_________ (also known as "parameter") is a term used by computer scientists to refer to some information that is sent into a function to help it do its job.

Argument

"American culture, in particular, loves the storyline of the prodigy..." What does Cal Newport claim is wrong with the prodigy narrative? [Write 1 or 2 sentences.]

Cal Newport claims the prodigy narrative in wrong because it fails to consider deliberate practice, which requires you to focus tightly on the skill you are trying to improve with no distraction. He argues that in order to be skillful at something, you are going to almost always have a deep level of practice at the skill.

A psychiatrist devised a short screening test for depression. We are evaluating the Accuracy metrics for this short test. The outcomes of the short test are compared with a gold standard for diagnosis of depression among 200 psychiatric outpatients. Assume that the gold standard is 100% accurate. Among the 50 outpatients found to be depressed according to the gold standard, 35 patients were positive for the short test. Among 150 patients found not to be depressed according to the gold standard, 30 patients were found to be positive for the test. The sensitivity was 80% (The "true positive rate" = Sensitivity = the proportion of subjects with the disease correctly diagnosed by the test)

FALSE

FALSE

In the new economy, the wages for people with no technical training are going down. The wages for people with advanced technical training are also going down.

FALSE

It is not necessary to convert repair_cat to a factor, as I do on line 46. I could use it in a decision tree if I leave it as verbal information.

FALSE

The decision tree is trained or created on line 55. The rpart.plot() command on line 60 is just creating a visual for a tree that already exists. The visual is nice for human interpretation.

FALSE

The specificity was 80% (The "true negative rate" = Specificity = the proportion of subjects without the disease correctly excluded by the test)

FALSE
