Exam CT-AI Topic 6 Question 24 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISTQB's CT-AI exam
Question #: 24
Topic #: 6
A motorcycle engine repair shop owner wants to detect a leaking exhaust valve and fix it before it falls and causes catastrophic damage to the engine. The shop developed and trained a predictive model with historical data files from known health engines and ones which experienced a catastrophic fails due to exhaust valve failure. The shop evaluated 200 engines using this model and then disassembled the engines to assess the true state of the valves, recording the results in the confusion matrix below.
What is the precision of this predictive model

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

Precision is a performance metric used to evaluate the accuracy of positive predictions in a classification model. It is defined by the formula:
Precision=TPTP+FP×100%\text{Precision} = \frac{TP}{TP + FP} \times 100\%Precision=TP+FPTP×100% Where:
* TP (True Positives)= Number of correctly predicted positive cases
* FP (False Positives)= Number of incorrectly predicted positive cases
The confusion matrix provided in the question would typically list these values. Based on ISTQB's guidelines for calculating precision, selecting the correct number of true positives and false positives from the given data should yield94.2%as the precision.
* Section 5.1 - Confusion Matrix and ML Functional Performance Metricsexplains the calculation of precisionusing the confusion matrix.
