Exercises

  1. In the one-hot encoding solution, can you use different classifiers supported in PySpark instead of logistic regression, such as decision trees, random forests, or linear SVM?
  2. In the feature hashing solution, can you try other hash sizes, such as 5,000 or 20,000? What do you observe?
  3. In the feature interaction solution, can you try other interactions, such as C1 and C20?
  4. Can you first use feature interaction and then feature hashing in order to lower the expanded dimension? Are you able to obtain a higher AUC?
