If we add to the discriminant function terms corresponding to products of features pairs, the discriminant function becomes a ___________________________________ function. (Hint:Type)

The _____________________________ approach of editing focuses on eliminating noisy samples to produce smoother decision boundaries and improve classification accuracy.

Use the following information to answer the next four questions A manufacturer orders ball bearings from a supplier.  The manufacturer uses 12,000 of the ball bearings each year and pays the supplier $1.75 per ball bearing.  Each time the supplier ships ball bearings to the manufacturer there is a fixed order cost of $250.00, and the manufacturer estimates their annual holding cost to be 40% of the cost per ball bearing.

The mountain building events of the west coast that began in the Jurassic and continued into the Cenozoic are collectively called the ____.​

During the Triassic, the separation of North America and Africa resulted in the formation of _____ along the eastern coast.

The ____________________________ approach of editing focuses on preserving decision boundaries among samples.

The Batch variable increment perceptron algorithm results in two decision boundaries, one for the positive samples and one for the negative samples. True/False _____________

Which of the following is a major disadvantage of Newton’s method compared to gradient descent? _________     A) It converges more slowly than gradient descent.    B) It requires the computation of the Hessian matrix, which is computationally expensive.    C) It cannot find local minima.    D) It is limited to non-convex functions.

Rank-order the substrate preference (highest to lowest) of microbes for the following substrates.**

For the following reaction; 2A + 3B –> C A is a first order reactant, and B is a second order reactant. The general rate law is:  rate = k[A]a[B]b … You can use the desmos online calculator. a) If [A] is 0.85M and [B] is 0.005M when the rate of the reaction is 1.4 x 10-4 M/s, solve for the rate constant for that reaction.   b) using that rate constant, solve for the rate of the reaction when [A] is 1.4 x 10-4M and [B] is 2.75 x 10-2M   c) for the same reaction, solve for [B] if the rate is 1.4 x 10-3 M/s when [A] is 0.7M
