Your company manages a video sharing website where users can watch and upload videos. You need to create an ML model to predict which newly uploaded videos will be the most popular so that those videos can be prioritized on your company's website. Which result should you use to determine whether the model is successful?

  • A. The model predicts videos as popular if the user who uploads them has over 10,000 likes.
  • B. The model predicts 97.5% of the most popular clickbait videos measured by number of clicks.
  • C. The model predicts 95% of the most popular videos measured by watch time within 30 days of being uploaded.
  • D. The Pearson correlation coefficient between the log-transformed number of views after 7 days and 30 days after publication is equal to 0.

Ans: C (See https://developers.google.com/machine-learning/problem-framing/framing#quantify-it; though it's just an example.) (A) The absolute number of likes shouldn't be used because no information about subscribers or visits to the website is provided. The number may vary. (B) Clickbait videos are a subset of uploaded videos. Using them is an improper criterion. (D) The coefficient should reach 1. (Ref:https://arxiv.org/pdf/1510.06223.pdf)

Selected Answer: A
The answer is A. Because the number of previous user likes is the only feature available on inference time (when the video has just been uploaded). Watch time and clicks are unavailable at inference time and should not be used for training!

ans: C In this type of questions, I think a good idea is trying to copy already existing solutions. For this case, YouTube cares a lot about watchtime. In a previous question, Amazon implemented "Usually buy together" for maximizing profit.

I think this is B. The question specifies "popular" and also that "newly uploaded" videos need prioritising. C is therefore wrong because you don't have that metric until 30 days has passed from upload time. "Click through rate" is one measure of popularity, so it fits, and is instant.

ANS: C D is wrong. Pearson's Correlation Coefficient is a linear correlation coefficient that returns a value of between -1 and +1. A -1 means there is a strong negative correlation +1 means that there is a strong positive correlation 0 means that there is no correlation
