28. In machine learning, a confusion matrix is a table that is often used to describe the performance of a classification model on a set of test data for which the true values are known. One can use the matrix to calculate the evaluation metrics, such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. Suppose a confusion matrix contains TP (true positive) = 900, FN (false negative) = 100, FP (false positive) = 50, and TN (true negative) = 950. What is the value of precision for the model? (A) 1850/2000 (B) 900/1000 (C) 900/2000 (D) 50/950 (E) 900/950

29. Suppose there is a two-input neuron with weights w1 = 3, w2 = 2, and bias b = 1.2. Let the activation function f be the ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit) function, defined as f(x) = max(0, x). Given the inputs p1 = -5 and p2 = 6. What is the output of this neuron? (A) 0 (B) 1.2 (C) 2.4 (D) -1.5 (E) -1.8

30. For a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) that can produce images of cars, which of the following statements is TRUE? (1) The generator aims to learn the distribution of car images. (2) After training the GAN, the discriminator loss eventually reaches a constant value. (3) The generator can produce unseen images of cars. (4) The discriminator can be used to classify images as car vs. non-car. (A) (1) and (2) (B) (2) and (3) (C) (1), (2) and (3) (D) (2), (3) and (4) (E) (1), (2), (3) and (4)
