Definitely try hyperparameter tuning first!

Scaling predictions won't really help with AUC improvement.

Surprised that people think real-world AUC is always higher.

Scaling predictions sounds a bit off to me; I don't recall that being a common method for improving AUC in our practice questions.

I think deploying the model to measure real-world AUC is a bit risky; I doubt it would always be higher than validation metrics.

I'm not sure if switching to deep neural networks is the best approach; I feel like SVMs can still perform well with the right tweaks.

I remember we discussed hyperparameter tuning in class; it seems like a good way to potentially improve the AUC.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the best approach here. Should we just do a quick acceptance test on the off-the-shelf systems and then jump straight to an end-to-end test? Or is there more we need to do?

Reasonless check? That doesn't sound like a real validation method. I'm going to rule that one out.

This looks like a tricky one. I think I'll need to carefully review the options and consider which tool would be best for identifying slow-performing visualizations in a Power BI report.

I think the best approach is to really dive into the Technology domain and make sure the infrastructure and technology capabilities are mapped out in detail. That seems to be the core focus of this project.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between routers and switches. I'll need to review that before attempting this.
