NO.46 Refer to the graphs shown below. The graphs are from a study of response rate to a marketing campaign.

How much more likely are the top 20% of targeted respondents to purchase the product than a randomly selected sample?
Select one:
Response:

NO.47 1. Define a new data source, PatternData, in SAS Enterprise Miner (SAS data set Patterndata.sas7bdat in the zip file distributed with this practice exam).
2. Set the role of all variables to Input, with the exception set the ID variable role to ID.
3. Set the measurement level for all variables to Interval, except:
– Set DemHomeOwner and StatusCatStarAll to Binary.
– Set DemCluster, DemGender, ID, and StatusCat96NK to Nominal.
4. Create a new diagram (name it Section6) within the project labeled Test.
5. Add the data source, PatternData, to this diagram. Make sure the variable roles and measurements are the same as in the table below. (Check the highlighted rows carefully and reset roles/levels as needed.)
6. Connect a Cluster node to the data source.
7. Modify the Cluster node to exclude nominal and binary input variables.
8. Run the Cluster node.

How many clusters are created by the Cluster node?
Response:

NO.48 Transformation of input variables to make their distributions more symmetric will likely have what impact in a logistic regression?
Select one:
Response:

NO.49 Perform these tasks in SAS Enterprise Miner:
*Continue to use the same diagram. Define and create the data set CREDIT_SCORE for scoring. The variables (their roles and measurement levels) in the CREDIT_SCORE data should be set as identical to those in the CREDIT dat a. The only exception is that the scoring data does not have a TARGET variable.
* Find the best model out of Decision Tree, Decision Tree (3-way), Regression, and Neural Network as defined by each of the four model’s overall performance in the validation data measured by average squared error. Now, use this best model to score the CREDIT_SCORE data.
CREDIT SCORE:

The percentage of TARGET=1 as predicted by the best model on the scoring data is in which of the following ranges?
Response:

NO.50 Multicollinearity in regression refers to which of the following?
Response:

NO.51 What percentage of observations in the test data has TARGET=1?
Response:

NO.52 Refer to the following profit matrix and confusion matrix for a campaign soliciting product purchases. The predicted variable is a binary outcome.

Based on the above tables, what is the average profit? You may use a calculator for this question. On the certification exam, an on-screen calculator is provided for you.
Select one:
Response:

NO.53 Assume a variable is coded as follows: 1=unmarried, 2=married, 3=divorced, and 4=widowed. Then which of the following measurement levels should be selected in SAS Enterprise Miner for this variable?
Response:

NO.54 Perform these tasks in SAS Enterprise Miner:
* Add a Decision Tree node, as shown below. (Make sure you use only default options in the Decision Tree node.)

* Run the Decision Tree node.
What percentage of all observations is being correctly predicted in the test data set by the decision tree?
Response:

NO.55 1. Create a project named Insurance, with a diagram named Explore.
2. Create the data source, DEVELOP, in SAS Enterprise Miner. DEVELOP is in the directory c:workshopPractice.
3. Set the role of all variables to Input, with the exception of the Target variable, Ins (1= has insurance, 0= does not have insurance).
4. Set the measurement level for the Target variable, Ins, to Binary.
5. Ensure that Branch and Res are the only variables with the measurement level of Nominal.
6. All other variables should be set to Interval or Binary.
7. Make sure that the default sampling method is random and that the seed is 12345.
What is the mean credit card balance (CCBal) of the customers with a variable annuity?
Response:

NO.56 Sometimes in predictive modeling we build models using a sample that has a primary outcome proportion different from true population proportion. This is usually done when the ratio of primary to secondary outcomes in a binary target variable in the population is close to which of the following?
Response:

NO.57 An analyst is performing a market basket analysis (affinity analysis) on the purchase of Shaving Cream and Seltzer Water. The purchase data from a set of 250 customers is shown below:

What is the confidence of the rule “Shaving Cream implies Seltzer Water”? You may use a calculator for this question. On the certification exam, an on-screen calculator is provided for you.
Select one:
Response:

NO.58 How many hidden layers are generally needed in an MLP-based neural network to capture a discontinuous relationship between inputs and target?
Response:

NO.59 The number of hidden layers in this Neural Network model is which of the following?
Response:

NO.60 Which of the following is not a good reason to”regularize” input distributions using a simple transformation?
Response:

NO.61 Open the diagram labeled Practice A within the project labeled Practice A. Perform the following in SAS Enterprise Miner:

1. Set the Clustering method to Average.
2. Run the Cluster node.
What is the Importance statistic for MTGBal (Mortgage Balance)?
Response:

NO.62 Perform these tasks in SAS Enterprise Miner:
– Add a Decision Tree node after the Impute node with TARGET as the dependent variable and all other input variables as independent variables (main effects only). Configure the decision tree to use 1 for Number of Surrogate Rules and Largest for Method in Subtree. Do not change any other property of the Decision Tree node.
– Add another Neural Network node after the decision tree with TARGET as the dependent variable and all other input variables as independent variables (main effects only). Configure the Neural Network model to use Average Error for Model Selection Criterion. Do not change any other property for the Neural Network node. Run the process flow.
