I vaguely recall that splitting the data into 40% training and 30% validation might not be ideal for smaller datasets, but I can't remember the specifics.

I feel like using the AIC goodness of fit statistic could be relevant, but it doesn't directly address the assessment method for small datasets.

Okay, let's see. Privacy is about restricting access and keeping information confidential, while security is about protecting the integrity and availability of the data. I think I know which answer choice captures that difference, but I'll double-check to make sure.

I think I know the answer to this one. Using Springs to control the simulation if it gets erratic sounds like the right approach.

I'm pretty confident this is a problem with the 802.1X authentication policy. That's usually the culprit when you can't connect to a WPA2-Enterprise network.
