Textbook Question
Chapter B.7, Problem 138E
Answer true or false to each of the following statements and explain your answers.
- a. Statistical methods designed for a particular set of assumptions may not perform well if the assumptions are violated.
- b. The presence of outliers in the values of the response variable can result in decreased values of the t-statistics for the utility of individual predictor variables.
- c. Generally, a regression model will predict as well or better for a new set of data than for the data from which it was developed.

The following list has statements about the classifiers. In the list, there is a single incorrect statement. Please identify the incorrect
statement.
Hint 1: recall that a classifier dominates another if both performance measures are better.
Hint 2: to help you visualize and compare classifiers, you may want to plot the classifier data in a ROC graph (which will not be
submitted).
Select one:
Qa.
O b.
Oc.
d.
By swapping zeroes and ones, M5 can be worsened
M8 does not dominate M9
M1 dominates all of M4, M5 and M6
M1 is a good classifier
?
e.
By swapping zeroes and ones, the performance of M4 does not change…

This data set will be analysed after centering all columns (not scaling). In what follows, the centered data columns are referred to as
X and Y. Using these centered columns, we have the following quantities: XTX = 24/11 = 2.1818; XTY = 13/11 =
and YTY = 24/11 = 2.1818.
Ridge regression
Q1 For 2 =

0.56, compute and write in the provided space the ridge estimate ẞ (0.56). Use decimal numbers, not fractions.
Q2 Using the ridge estimate ẞ (0.56) you just computed, determine the percentage of shrinkage achieved with respect to the
squared L2 norm. That is, compute the shrinkage using || (0.56)||||||with the OLS estimate. In the provided space, write
the shrinkage as percentage between 0 and 100 with decimal values.

Calculate the 95% confidence intervals for the proportion of children surviving, and the proportion of non-crew adult passengers surviving. We want to use the given data to make inferences about the general population of all large boat crashes, so the data set should be treated as a random sample for this purpose.
Part 2
The 95% confidence interval for survival rate amongst non-crew adults runs from
enter your response here% to
enter your response here%.
(Round to one decimal place as needed. Use ascending order.)
Part 3
The 95% confidence interval for survival rate amongst children runs from
enter your response here% to
enter your response here%.
(Round to one decimal place as needed. Use ascending order.)
Part 4
Test the alternative hypothesis that the proportion of children surviving does not equal 35%, and next, test the alternative hypothesis that the proportion of non-crew adult passengers surviving does not equal 35%. Again, the data set should…
