Logistic Regression, From Scratch

Classification

Easy

Two continuous features, one binary label. Fit a classifier and score accuracy on held-out rows; a majority-class guess scores 0.60.

Accuracy 0.600 → 0.850 ↑

Spam Filter

NLP

Medium

Classify messages from six keyword counts. F1 is measured for the spam class, and predicting every message as ham scores 0.00.

F1 0.000 → 0.850 ↑

House Price Regression

Regression

Easy

Estimate sale price from size, bedrooms, and age. Lower is better: predicting the training mean scores an MSE of 2879.57.

MSE 2879.57 → 400.00 ↓

Noisy Quadratic

Regression

Medium

The target follows a noisy quadratic in one feature. Explain the variance on held-out data; a straight-line fit only reaches R-squared 0.26.

R² 0.260 → 0.880 ↑

K-Means Segmenter

Clustering

Hard

Four well-separated groups in feature space, each with its own target level. Cluster the training rows and predict a value per test row; predicting the global mean scores R-squared 0.00.

R² 0.000 → 0.900 ↑

Credit Default Detector

Classification

Medium

Only about a third of applicants default. F1 is measured for the default class, and predicting everyone as safe scores 0.00.

F1 0.000 → 0.850 ↑

Robust Sensor Calibration

Regression

Medium

Two sensor readings predict a target, but a few training rows are corrupted by outliers. Lower is better: the training-mean baseline scores an MSE of 84.91.

MSE 84.91 → 8.00 ↓

XOR Boundary

Classification

Hard

An XOR label over two features: no linear boundary beats 0.75 accuracy. Reach 0.90 on held-out rows with an engineered interaction.

Accuracy 0.750 → 0.900 ↑
