Syntax Reference Regular Expressions
“|” matches expression on either side of symbol. Has lowest priority.
“” match the following character literally.
“?” match preceding literal or sub-expression 0
or 1 times.
“+” matchprecedingliteralorsub-expressionone or more times.
Some useful Python functions and syntax re.findall(pattern, st) returns the list of all non-
overlapping sub-strings in st that match pattern.
Useful Pandas Syntax
“*” match preceding literal or sub-expression zero or more times.
“.” match any character except new line.
“[ ]” matchanyoneofthecharactersinside,ac- cepts a range, e.g., “[a-c]”. All characters inside treated literally.
“( )” used to create a sub-expression. “{n}” preceding expression repeated n times.
np.random.choice(a, replace, size)
Generates a random sample from a consisting of size values (with replacement if replace=True). a can be 1-D array-like or int.
df.loc[row_selection, col_list] # row selection can be boolean df.iloc[row_selection, col_list] # row selection can be boolean pd.get_dummies(data) # Convert categorical variable into indicator values df.groupby(group_columns)[[’colA’, ’colB’]].agg(agg_func) df.groupby(group_columns)[[’colA’, ’colB’]].filter(filter_func)
Variance and Expected Value
The expected value of X is E[X] = 􏰂mj=1 xjpj. The variance of X is V ar[X] = E[(X − E[X])2] = E[X2] − E[X]2. The standard deviation of X is SD[X] = 􏰕V ar[X].
Misc
For calculations involving percentiles of collections of numbers, we will use the following convention from Data 8: Let p be a number between 0 and 100. The pth percentile is the smallest number in the collection that is at least as large as p% of all the values.
The logistic equation is σ(x) = 1 and the KL divergence for two distributions is D(P||Q) = 1+exp(−x)
􏰂Kk=1 P (k) log(P (k)/Q(k))

Big Data
2. [6 Pts] The figure above from class shows four distinct file blocks labeled A, B, C, and D spread across four machines, where each machine holds exactly 3 blocks.
(a) Forthefigureabove,atmost,howmanyofourmachinescanfailwithoutanydataloss?

3. [3 Pts] Suppose we use the map reduce paradigm to compute the total lab scores for each student in DS100. Suppose there are 800 students and 12 labs, and exactly 1 submission per student. Each execution of the map operation is an execution of the autograder, i.e. it will compute the score for a single lab for a single student. The reduce operation computes the total score for each student by adding up all of the lab scores.

4. [3 Pts] As described in class, the traditional data warehouse is a large tabular database that is period- ically updated through the ETL process, which combines data from several smaller data sources into a common tabular format. The alternative is a data lake, where data is stored in its original natural form. Which of the following are good reasons to use a data lake approach?
􏰄 A. The data is sensitive, e.g. medical data or government secrets.
􏰄 B. To maximize compatibility with commercial data analysis and visualization tools. 􏰄 C. When there is no natural way to store the data in tabular format.
􏰄 D. To ensure that the data is clean.

Bootstrap and the Sampling Distribution
5. Note: The following problem is stylized to fit on paper, meaning that the sample size and number of replicates are much smaller than they should be in practice.
In order to infer the population mean, variance, and median of a discrete random variable X, a single simple random sample of size 5 is drawn from the population.
x 11 11 92 34 53
The mean, variance, and median of the values above are 40.2, 918.16, and 34, respectively. You decide to perform a bootstrap analysis of your statistics. The replicates and (rounded) summary statistics are given to you below. Bootstrap replicates are displayed either as rows or columns–you must infer which from the structure of this problem. rowmeans, rowvars, and rowmedians are the means, variances, and medians of the rows respectively.

⃝ A. ⃝ B.
⃝ C. ⃝ D.
(e) [3 Pts] Using the results of the bootstrap, construct a 50% confidence interval for the population
variance.
􏰌,􏰍
(f) [2 Pts] Above, we drew R bootstrap replicates. If we draw many more sets of bootstrap repli- cates, say M = 10000 sets of R replicates each, and calculate 10000 50% confidence intervals for the population variance the same way we did in the part above, then roughly 50% of those intervals will contain the true population variance.
⃝ True ⃝ False
6. [4 Pts] This problem is unrelated to the previous problem. Suppose you have a box containing prize tickets. Half of the tickets are worth $0, and other half are worth $3. Suppose you draw a simple random sample of size 3 with replacement from the box. Plot the sampling distribution of the sample mean and provide titles for the axes.

DS100 Final, Page 9 of 24 December 13th, 2018
Hypothesis Testing
7. A mysterious stranger on Sproul Plaza stops you on your way to class and claims that she has learned to flip any coin such that it lands on heads more often than the 50% you’d expect from random chance. To demonstrate, she takes a penny from her wallet, flips it 10 times, and gets heads nine times and only gets tails once.
(a) [4 Pts] The null hypothesis is that this was pure random chance, and that the probability of getting heads was 50% for each flip. What is the p-value under the null hypothesis of getting 1 or fewer tails out of 10 flips? You may leave your answer as a fraction if necessary.
(b) [4Pts] Supposethestrangerflipsthecoin28moretimes,andtheyallendupheads.Theresulting p value including all 38 flips under the null hypothesis is approximately pb = 10−10. Which of the following are true? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. 􏰄 B.
􏰄 C. 􏰄 D. 􏰄 E. 􏰄 F.
It is extremely unlikely that the stranger just happened to get 37 heads by randomly getting heads on 50/50 coin flips.
pb is the probability that the null hypothesis is true.
1 − pb is the probability that the stranger has the skill to flip any arbitrary coin and get
heads.
If you flipped a fair coin 38 times, pb is the chance that you’d get at least 37 heads by random chance.
The stranger has proven beyond any reasonable doubt that she has the skill to flip any coin to land on heads with high probability.
None of the above.
8. The DS100 staff is trying to test whether going to discussion improves a students grade in the class. In order to test this, they consider an observational study to measure possible effects of going to discussion on a students grade in the class.
(a) [4 Pts] For Fall 2019, suppose A is a Series containing final exam grades for students who at- tended section 7 or more times, and B is a Series containing final exam grades for students who attended section 3 or fewer times. Assume that there are no students who attended section 4, 5, or 6 times. The staff wishes to evaluate the null hypothesis that attending discussion has no relationship with a student’s score on the final exam. Which of the following are reasonable test statistics to evaluate the null hypothesis? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. A.mean() – B.mean()
􏰄 B. A.sum() – B.sum()
􏰄 C. A.median() – B.median() 􏰄 D. A.max() – B.max()

DS100 Final, Page 10 of 24 December 13th, 2018
(b) [2 Pts] Suppose the Fall 2019 staff selects the first statistic above: A.mean() – B.mean(). Suppose this difference is 8 points out of 100. From this information alone, what can the staff conclude? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. It is very unlikely that this large difference in performance was merely due to chance. 􏰄 B. Attending section helps improve a student’s performance.
􏰄 C. Neither of these.
(c) [2 Pts] A staff member suggests using the bootstrap to create a confidence interval for the test statistic from part b. Another staff member disagrees and says that the bootstrap would be useless for this purpose because the data is already a census, not a sample. Who is right?
⃝ A. ⃝ B. ⃝ C.
The bootstrap would yield a useful confidence interval.
The bootstrap confidence interval would be useless since the data is already a census.
Neither is correct. The bootstrap confidence interval would be useless, but for a differ- ent reason.
(d) [3 Pts] Another staff member suggests using a permutation test. Which of the following could a permutation test help with? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. 􏰄 B.
􏰄 C.
Can be used to provide a p value for the null hypothesis.
Can provide strong evidence that the difference in performance was not merely due to chance.
Can establish a causal relationship that attending section helps improve a student’s performance.

Bias Variance Tradeoff
13. In class, we showed that the expected squared error can be decomposed into several important terms:

Cross Validation
15. [2.5 Pts] Aman and Ed built a model on their data with two regularization hyperparameters λ and γ. They have 4 good candidate values for λ and 3 possible values for γ, and they are wondering which λ, γ pair will be the best choice. If they were to perform five-fold cross-validation, how many validation errors would they need to calculate?
16. [2 Pts] In the typical setup of k-fold cross validation, we use a different parameter value on each fold, compute the mean squared error of each fold and choose the parameter whose fold has the lowest loss. ⃝ True ⃝ False
17. [2 Pts] Suppose we have m data points in our training set and n data points in our test set. In leave-one-out cross validation, we only use one data point for validation while the rest are used for training. Which of the following is leave-one-out cross validation equivalent to?

19. Suppose you are working with a partner to train a model with one hyperparameter λ. Together, you and your partner run 5-fold cross validation and compute mean squared errors for each fold and value of λ from a set of 4 candidate values for λ. However, your partner forgets to send you the results for the last two folds! The table below contains the mean squared errors for the first three of five total folds.
(a) [3 Pts] Your partner uses the full table containing data for all five folds to create a final model to use on test data. Given the information above, what can you conclude about the final model? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. Our final model should use λ = 0.4.

21. [7.5 Pts] Suppose we have a data set which we divide into 3 equally sized parts, A, B, and C. We fit 3 linear regression models with L2 regularization (i.e. ridge regression), X, Y , and Z, all on A. Each model uses the same features and training set, the only difference is the λ used by each model. Select all below that are always true.
􏰄 A. 􏰄 B.
􏰄 C. 􏰄 D. 􏰄 E. 􏰄 F.
Suppose Z has the lowest average loss on B. Model Z will have the lowest average loss when evaluated on C.
If A and B have the same exact mean and variance, the average loss of model Y on B will be exactly equal to the average loss of Y on A.
If λ = 0 for model X, Loss(X, A) ≤ Loss(Y, A) and Loss(X, A) ≤ Loss(Z, A). If λY < λZ, then Loss(Y,A) ≤ Loss(Z,A). If λY > λZ, then Loss(Y,B) ≥ Loss(Z,B).
None of the above.

Probability and Potpourri
Some of the problems in this section were explicitly (or near explicitly) covered in a lecture or dis- cussion section. As a result, they are worth fewer points than you might expect given the amount of work needed to derive them from scratch. If you find yourself spending a ton of time on one of these, come back to it later.
22. Recall from lecture 21 that Jensen’s Inequality states that for a random variable X and a convex function f, f(E[X]) ≤ E[f(X)].

[4 Pts] You want to know whether or not a coin is fair. As you flip the coin, you keep track of your test statistic D, which is the total number of heads observed minus the total number of tails observed. After each flip, you compute the p value under the null hypothesis (that the coin is fair) for your observed value of D. If the p value ever falls below 0.05, you stop and announce the coin is unfair. If you reach T flips, you announce the coin is fair. Suppose you have a fair coin, what is the probability pF D of a false discovery with this procedure using that fair coin?
⃝ A. At most 5%, independent of the value of T.
⃝ B. As T grows, pF D asymptotically decreases to 0%. ⃝ C. As T grows, pF D asymptotically increases to 100%.

Suppose f1(x) = rx(1 − x), and f2(x) = rx − rx2. For r = 1.9 and x = 0.8, f1 and f2 will return two different numbers in Python.
25. [2 Pts] For this problem, recall that stochastic gradient descent is very similar to normal gradient descent, except that the gradient of the loss function is computed on a random sample of the data instead of the entire dataset. Which of the following are true? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. 􏰄 B.
􏰄 C. 􏰄 D. 􏰄 E.

Linear Regression (Hard Problem)
Throughout this section we refer to ”least squares regression”, which is the process of minimizing the average L2 loss using a linear regression model. Ordinary least squares is the version of least squares regression where we do not use regularization. Assume throughout that our model includes a bias term. Warning: Parts of this problem are pretty hard!
26. [3 Pts] What is always true about the residuals in least squares regression? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. They are orthogonal to the column space of the features. 􏰄 B. They represent the errors of the predictions.
􏰄 C. Their sum is equal to the mean squared error.
􏰄 D. Their sum is equal to zero.
􏰄 E. None of the above.
27. [3Pts] Whatarepossibledisadvantagesofordinaryleastsquares(OLS)regressioncomparedtoridge

􏰄 D. OLS is more prone to overfitting.
􏰄 E. None of the above.
28. [3 Pts] What differentiates LASSO compared to OLS? Select all that apply.

LASSO uses the mean absolute error (MAE) loss, while OLS uses mean squared error (MSE).
LASSO tends to identify more features as relevant.
LASSO typically has lower average error on the training data. All weights in a LASSO model must be less than 1.
None of the above.
29. [3 Pts] Which are true about the predictions made by OLS? Select all that apply.
􏰄 A. They are projections of the observations onto the column space of the features. 􏰄 B. They are linear in the chosen features.
􏰄 C. They are orthogonal to the residuals.
􏰄 D. They are orthogonal to the column space of the features.
􏰄 E. None of the above.
