Copy ### Sample Interview Questions Describe a time you used deep learning to solve a business problem. What was the approach and outcome?At my previous role, we needed to improve fraud detection. I implemented a CNN for transaction pattern recognition, reducing false positives by 20% and saving the company $500K annually.How would you handle a dataset with high dimensionality and missing values?I would use dimensionality reduction techniques like PCA or autoencoders, and impute missing values using KNN or model-based methods, ensuring robust feature engineering.Explain the difference between bagging and boosting in ensemble learning.Bagging builds models independently and averages them to reduce variance, while boosting builds models sequentially, each correcting the previous errors, to reduce bias.How do you evaluate the performance of a machine learning model in production?I monitor metrics like accuracy, precision, recall, and AUC, and also track business KPIs. A/B testing and drift detection are used to ensure model performance over time.Describe your experience with big data tools like PySpark and Hadoop. Give an example of a project.I used PySpark to process terabytes of clickstream data, performing feature extraction and training a random forest model on a Hadoop cluster, achieving scalable and efficient processing. ## Company Description Experian is a global data and technology company, powering opportunities for people and businesses around the world.
