I vaguely recall that adaptive smoothing is a different technique, so maybe option D isn't right? It feels like we covered that in class.

I feel like option B could be correct since both models can provide insights at a detailed level, but I need to double-check that.

I remember there being a question similar to this in our practice quizzes, and I think it mentioned the Joint Commission. But I could be mixing it up.
