Based upon the comparative ROC plot for two competing models, which is the champion model and why?
A . Candidate 1, because the area outside the curve is greater
B . Candidate 2, because the area under the curve is greater
C . Candidate 1, because it is closer to the diagonal reference curve
D . Candidate 2, because it shows less over fit than Candidate 1
Answer: B

Answer: A
Assume a $10 cost for soliciting a non-responder and a $200 profit for soliciting a responder. The logistic regression model gives a probability score named P_R on a SAS data set called VALID. The VALID data set contains the responder variable Pinch, a 1/0 variable coded as 1 for responder. Customers will be solicited when their probability score is more than 0.05.
Which SAS program computes the profit for each customer in the data set VALID?
A . Option A
B . Option B
C . Option C
D . Option D
Answer: A
Refer to the ROC curve:
As you move along the curve, what changes?
A . The priors in the population
B . The true negative rate in the population
C . The proportion of events in the training data
D . The probability cutoff for scoring
Answer: D
An analyst has a sufficient volume of data to perform a 3-way partition of the data into training, validation, and test sets to perform honest assessment during the model building process.
What is the purpose of the training data set?
A . To provide an unbiased measure of assessment for the final model.
B . To compare models and select and fine-tune the final model.
C . To reduce total sample size to make computations more efficient.
D . To build the predictive models.
Answer: A
An analyst compares the mean salaries of men and women working at a company.
The SAS data set SALARY contains variables:
– Gender (M or F)
– Pay (dollars per year)
Which SAS programs can be used to find the p-value for comparing men’s salaries with women’s salaries? (Choose two.)
A . Option A
B . Option B
C . Option C
D . Option D
Answer: A,B
There are missing values in the input variables for a regression application.
Which SAS procedure provides a viable solution?
A . GLM
B . VARCLUS
C . STDI2E
D . CLUSTER
Answer: C
In partitioning data for model assessment, which sampling methods are acceptable? (Choose two.)
A . Simple random sampling without replacement
B . Simple random sampling with replacement
C . Stratified random sampling without replacement
D . Sequential random sampling with replacement
Answer: A,C
What is a drawback to performing data cleansing (imputation, transformations, etc.) on raw data prior to partitioning the data for honest assessment as opposed to performing the data cleansing after partitioning the data?
A . It violates assumptions of the model.
B . It requires extra computational effort and time.
C . It omits the training (and test) data sets from the benefits of the cleansing methods.
D . There is no ability to compare the effectiveness of different cleansing methods.
Answer: D
Given the following GLM procedure output:
Which statement is correct at an alpha level of 0.05?
A . School*Gender should be removed because it is non-significant.
B . Gender should be removed because it is non-significant.
C . School should be removed because it is significant.
D . Gender should not be removed due to its involvement in the significant interaction.
Answer: D
