Data analysts at Universal bank is building a classification tree to classify its customers into two classes: nonacceptors (class 0) and acceptors (class 1) of personal loan offer. Each customer can be described by a set of attributes, such as age, experience, income, family size, education, average spending on credit cards per month, etc. The data analysts are in the process of identifying the most powerful predictor to split a set of training records (denoted by A). After splitting A with customer's family size, two subsets of records are generated, denoted by A1 and A2 respectively. The number of nonacceptors and acceptors in A, A1, and A2 are given below. A A1 A2 Number of Nonacceptors 352 340 12 Number of Acceptors 223 36 187 Round your answers to 3 digits after the decimal point. The Gini index of A is 0.475 The Gini index of A1 is 0.173 The Gini index of A2 is 0.113 The combined Gini index of A1 and A2 is 0.648 The reduction in Gini index if training records are split using customer's family size is -1.4147

One major factor in low productivity is the amount of time wasted by workers. Wasted time could include things such as time spent waiting for more material and equipment, cleaning up mistakes, and performing any other activity not related to production. In a project designed to examine this problem, a consultant took a survey of 200 workers in companies that were classified as successful (on the basis of their latest annual profits) and another 200 workers from unsuccessful companies. The amount of time (in hours) wasted during a standard 40-hour workweek was recorded for each worker. Do these data provide enough evidence at the 5% significance level to infer that the amount of time wasted in unsuccessful firms exceeds that of successful ones? To answer this question, the consultant ran several analyses and provided the out below. Note that none of these analyses might be correct. A. H0: (μ1 - μ2) = 0 H1: (μ1 - μ2) > 0 B. H0: μD = 0 H1: μD > 0 C. H0: μD = 0…

As you read about each study, (a) classify the type of research that it reflects, and (b) identify the kinds of conclusions that might reasonably be drawn from the results. The director of computer technology in Emerson School District wants to gather information about the use of technology-based instruction in language arts and literature classes in the district's middle schools and high schools. For her study, the director identifies five of the top teachers in these content areas. She visits and observes each teacher's classes on three different days and subsequently interviews each teacher. Then she summarizes the ways that these teachers incorporate the use of technology into their lessons and their students' activities. The director also summarizes teachers' beliefs about the roles of technology in students' learning and motivation. (a) Classify the research as one of the following: Quantitative/descriptive Quantitative/correlational…
Individuals involved in the criminal justice system are thought to display many dynamic criminogenic needs, meaning that they have areas of need that are specifically associated with a higher risk of offending (e.g., substance use, antisocial peers etc…). Research has demonstrated that addressing these needs in treatment can lead to reductions in committing new crimes when released from prison. A researcher thinks that offenders may also have some strengths that, if built upon, can also lead to further reductions in recidivism. The researcher has 10 incarcerated offenders take 2 assessments: one on dynamic risk factors and one on strengths (both interval scales) to see if these measures are related to each other. Using the data in Table 1 and testing at an alpha of 0.05, use all the steps of hypothesis testing to determine what can be said about the researcher’s hypothesis.

A sociologist wants to investigate the question, "Is there a relationship between texting during class and grade-point-average (GPA) among high school seniors in a large district?" Which study design is most appropriate? Before the semester starts, randomly select 40 seniors from each high school who do not text during class. Assign 20 to the texting treatment group (text three or more times during every class meeting) and 20 to the control group (no texting during class). At the end of the semester, obtain each student’s GPA from the appropriate admissions and records office. Compare the GPA of students who routinely text during class to the GPA of students who do not text during class.

A mutual fund is a professionally managed investmentscheme that pools money from many investorsand invests in a variety of securities. Growth fundsfocus primarily on increasing the value of investments,whereas blended funds seek a balance betweencurrent income and growth.

Which concrete is best sold where? The marketing team of an engineering firm noticed that some of their concrete products are having trouble being sold at some of their distribution points. So they decided to investigate the sales for three concrete types: high-strength concrete, stamped concrete, and high-performance concrete. After consulting with the sales managers at three of their distribution points (A, B and C), they suspected two possibilities as potential reasons for the sales problem. The first is simply that some concrete types just sells better than others. The second is that in general, concrete sells in some places better than in others. So, they thought that if the first reason was true, they would have to just cut down on the production of the concrete types which don’t sell well. But if the second reason was true, then they would just limit normal distribution of concrete to places where it sells well. To clear these issues out they conducted a study. For each…

A factory uses three production lines to manufacture cans of a certain type. The accompanying table gives percentages of nonconforming cans, categorized by type of non-conformance for each of the three lines during a particular time period. During this time period, line 1 produced 100 non-conforming cans, line 2 produced 100 such cans, and line 3 was responsible for 300 non-conforming cans. A Quality Control person picks up a non-conforming can produced by one of the three lines. What is the probability that the can was produced by Line 1?

In a regression problem with 2 input variables, we construct a classification tree with 4 terminal nodes. This means（multiple choices) There was either four splits in only one of the input variables or one split in each of the input variable. There was a split in one of the input variables and no splits in the other. There was a split in each input variable. There was either a split in each input variable or three splits in only one of the input variables. There were 2 splits in each of the input variables.
Suppose because of facility limitations, a large privately owned nursing home has been turning away large numbers of patients requesting admission. Because the nursing home receives some financial assistance from public sources, they are prohibited from making the decision concerning admission on the basis of whether payment is from Medicaid or private funds. As part of a compliance study, suppose that researchers collect the following data over a two year period. Of the 88 Medicaid patients applying for admission, 24 are admitted while 64 are not. Of the 110 privately funded patients applying for admission, 62 are admitted while 48 are not. Are admission status and funding independent? Admitted (A) Not Admitted Medicaid (M) 24 64 Privately Funded 62 48 Group of answer choices No, because P(M | A) is not equal to P(M No, because P(M | A) = P(M) Yes, because P(M | A) = P(M Yes, because P(M | A) is not equal to P(M)
