Machine Learning Engineer Interview Questions

Alfred O. - "We can use dictionary to store cache items so that our read / write operations will be O(1). Each time we read or update an existing record, we have to ensure the item is moved to the back of the cache. This will allow us to evict the first item in the cache whenever the cache is full and we need to add new records also making our eviction O(1) Instead of normal dictionary, we will use ordered dictionary to store cache items. This will allow us to efficiently move items to back of the cache a"See full answer

Anchal V. - "supervised learning: model is trained on the labeled data unsupervised learning: no labels provided - model learns by finding patterns , structure and groupings in the data. Semi-supervised learning: use small set of labels to guide learning for the larger pool of unlabeled data. reinforcement learning: leans by interacting with students the environment, receives reward and penalties based on actions self supervised: no labelled data . The model makes its own practice problems by"See full answer

Jacky Y. - "Problem scope: Can this system detect Bot in real-time online or offline? Both. Online traffic: 1M DAU. Latency: 2s. Offline frequency: daily Offline data: 2B activity logs. Data: How do we know a Bot player (Label)? Human label. Imbalance data: reweight, resample. Develop a Bot simulator to generate more data offline for training. Given lower weight to simulator data than human label. Features: Signals from different models online. Log all the features for offline. Propose new features: dail"See full answer

Rajesh V. - "As a PM i received a feedback from my program manager on my style of verbal communication.
