A newspaper publisher has a table of customer data that consists of several numerical and categorical features, such as age and education history, as well as subscription status. The company wants to build a targeted marketing model for predicting the subscription status based on the table data.

Which Amazon SageMaker built-in algorithm should be used to model the targeted marketing?

  • A. Random Cut Forest (RCF)
  • B. XGBoost
  • C. Neural Topic Model (NTM)
  • D. DeepAR forecasting

Selected Answer: B
B is correct. IMO A - No, Random cut forest is for anomaly detection B - Yes, exactly was XGBoost is good for. Binary classification based on a variety of input features C - No, NTM is unsupervised. The problem states the table already has subscription status, therefore we need a supervised algorithm D - No, DeepAR is used for time-series data

Selected Answer: B
XGBoost is a popular and powerful algorithm for binary classification problems such as this one, where the goal is to predict a binary outcome (e.g. whether a customer subscribes or not). It is particularly effective when the dataset has a mix of numerical and categorical features.

The answer is B: A. Random Cut Forest (RCF): anomaly detection B. XGBoost: allows classification tasks like the use case in the question C. Neural Topic Model (NTM): topic modelling D. DeepAR forecasting: time series

I think the answer is B. It looks like no time serials condition, so it may be not suitable to A and D.

can you please let us know, where in question it states that date/time column is available. It is all about numerical or categorical columns and we need to predict subscription status which can be done by the use XG-BOOST
