Explanation
Another aspect of collaborative filtering systems is the ability to generate more personalized recommendations by analyzing information from the past activity of a specific user, or the history of other users deemed to be of similar taste to a given user. These resources are used as user profiling and help the site recommend content on a user-by-user basis. The more a given user makes use of the system, the better the recommendations become, as the system gains data to improve its model of that user

Explanation
This question wants to check your understanding about Bl and Data Science. Bl was already existing and analytics team already using it. They need to improve and learn data science technique to solve some problems. If you check the option given in the question, it will confuse you. But if you have worked in Bl or as a Data Scientist then it is easy to answer. First 3 option can be easily answered using reporting solution, what sales happened in last six month, what was the problem etc.
But for the last two option you need to apply data science techniques like which all scenarios are optimal for product sales, you need to collect the data and applying various techniques for that. Hence, last two option can only be answered using Data Science technique And for this you need to apply techniques like Optimization, predictive modeling, statistical analysis on structured and un-structured data.

Explanation
In this problem you have been given high-dimensional independent variables like yeS; nO; no English words , test results etc. and you have to predict either valid or not valid (One of two). So all of the below technique can be applied to this problem.
* Support vector machines
* Naive Bayes
* Logistic regression
* Random decision forests

Explanation
Laplace smoothing is a technique for parameter estimation which accounts for unobserved events. It is more robust and will not fail completely when data that has never been observed in training shows up.

Explanation
If you're trying to predict or forecast a target value, then you need to look into supervised learning. If not, then unsupervised learning is the place you want to be. If you've chosen supervised learning, what's your target value? Is it a discrete value like Yes/No: 1/2/3, A/B/C: or Red/Yellow/Black? If so: then you want to look into classification. If the target value can take on a number of values, say any value from 0.00 to 100.00: or-999 to
999, or +_to -_, then you need to look into regression.
