Question: 894
You build an RNN with two stacked LSTM layers (64 units each) in SageMaker to forecast hourly energy usage from a 24-hour sequence. You use tanh activation, a batch size of 32, and a learning rate of
0.01. After 50 epochs, the model predicts flat values across all hours. What’s the most likely cause, and how should you fix it?
nishing gradients; switch to ReLU activation rning rate too high; reduce it to 0.001 ufficient capacity; add a third LSTM layer
Data not normalized; scale inputs to [0, 1] er: B
nation: Flat predictions in RNNs often result from a learning rate too high (0.01), causing un that prevent the model from learning temporal patterns. Reducing it to 0.001 stabilizes trai
ng the LSTM to capture dependencies. Vanishing gradients are mitigated by LSTMs, and lization or capacity isn’t indicated as the primary issue.

The data engineering team needs to ensure that the S3 bucket can handle a grow of data—currently 50 TB and expected to double annually—while supporting concurrent rite operations from multiple SageMaker training jobs. Which configuration optimizes the S for this ML use case? able S3 versioning and configure lifecycle policies to transition older data to S3 Glacier, usi S3 storage class ate an S3 bucket with Requester Pays enabled and use S3 Standard-Infrequent Access for al up S3 bucket with Transfer Acceleration and multipart upload enabled, using S3 Intelligent for cost optimization nfigure S3 bucket with cross-region replication to an EFS file system and enable strong tency er: C nation: For a fraud detection ML system with large, growing datasets and concurrent SageM S3 must be optimized for performance and cost. Transfer Acceleration and multipart uploa A fina to use Amaz d custo ing volume read/w 3 bucket En ng default Cre l objects Set - Tiering Co consis Answ Expla aker access, d enhance upload speed and handle large files efficiently, while Intelligent-Tiering automatically adjusts storage costs based on access patterns. Versioning with Glacier is less optimal for frequent access, Requester Pays shifts costs inappropriately for internal use, and cross-region replication to EFS is impractical as EFS is a separate service, not an S3 feature. In a SageMaker training job, you optimize a neural network with a custom loss function combining L1 and L2 penalties. The dataset has 5 million rows, and you use mini-batch gradient descent with a batch size of 128 and learning rate of 0.005. After 40 epochs, the loss converges to 0.4 on training data but fluctuates between 0.7 and 0.9 on validation data. What’s the most likely cause, and how should you address it? Loss mismatch; switch to pure L2 loss Learning rate too low; increase it to 0.01 Batch size too small; increase it to 512 Overfitting; add dropout with rate=0.3 to hidden layers Answer: D nation: Fluctuating validation loss with converged training loss indicates overfitting, where t memorizes training data. Adding dropout (rate=0.3) regularizes the network, reducing overfi abilizing validation performance without altering the optimization process. ufacturing firm is preparing a 26 TB dataset of production logs in S3 (Parquet format) for a to predict quality.

Glue lacks native statistical tools, QuickSight skips clustering, and Lambda is unsuitable for complex analysis. You deploy a SageMaker model for real-time fraud detection using a gradient boosting classifier trained on 5 million transactions. The model runs on an ml.m5.xlarge instance, and you need to update it every 15 minutes with 10,000 new transactions. Which online retraining strategy would minimize downtime?

A manufacturing firm is processing a 18 TB dataset of sensor logs in S3 (CSV format), including temperatures, pressures, and failure flags, to minimize equipment downtime. The goal is to predict failure probability per machine with 92% accuracy, currently at 65% with manual checks. The ML team must decide if ML is appropriate, choose supervised vs. unsupervised learning, and select a model type, considering labeled failure data. Which solution best frames this business problem? Avoid ML: implement an AWS Glue job to flag machines above temperature thresholds, as ML is too complex Frame as an unsupervised recommendation problem: use SageMaker with Factorization Machines to suggest maintenance schedules without failure predictions Frame as a supervised classification problem: use SageMaker with XGBoost to predict failure probability, training on failure flags Frame as a supervised regression problem: use SageMaker with Linear Learner to predict failure times as continuous values er: C nation: Predicting failure probability with 92% accuracy justifies ML over 65% manual chec vised learning leverages labeled failure flags, and classification (XGBoost) suits the probabili me. Recommendation lacks failure focus, rule-based flagging underperforms, and regression gns with the binary prediction needed. ing company is processing a 32 TB dataset of player logs in S3 (JSON format), including s mes, and churn flags, to reduce churn by 20%.

Super stic outco misali A gam cores, playti y per player applic eled churn d Fra proba Fra y playti Av requir Fra times as con Answer: A Explanation: Predicting churn probability with 85% accuracy warrants ML over 55% heuristic rules. Supervised learning fits the labeled churn flags, and classification (XGBoost) addresses the probabilistic outcome. Clustering lacks predictive precision, rule-based thresholds underperform, and regression misaligns with the binary prediction needed. You’re training an RNN with 30 GB of time-series data using AWS Batch and Spot Instances on 5 p3.2xlarge instances. The job fails after 3 hours. How do you fix it? Use On-Demand p3.2xlarge with no checkpointing and a 10-hour timeout Add checkpointing to S3 every 10 epochs, set retries to 3, and use a 15-hour timeout Switch to g4dn.xlarge Spot Instances with no retries nation: Checkpointing to S3 every 10 epochs and retries handle Spot interruptions, ensuring etion on p3.2xlarge within 15 hours. On-Demand is costlier, and g4dn lacks GPU capacity. rt city initiative is implementing an ML model for traffic optimization and needs to transfor ing traffic camera data (200 MB/second) from Kinesis Data Streams.

With 5 sures low-latency delivery to consumers. Kinesis Data Firehose seamlessly integrates with S3, buffering data (e.g., 60 seconds) to optimize writes, reducing operational complexity compared to custom solutions. MSK is powerful but requires more management for consumers, SQS isn’t suited for such high throughput, and API Gateway with WebSocket is impractical for this scale of raw data ingestion. A pharmaceutical company is building an ML model for drug discovery and needs to ingest streaming sensor data (90 MB/second) from lab equipment into an S3 data lake. The ingestion must aggregate data by experiment ID every 30 seconds, partition by date and equipment ID (yyyy/MM/dd/equipID), and handle late-arriving events up to 2 minutes. Which streaming ingestion solution is most appropriate? Use Amazon Managed Service for Apache Flink with a 30-second tumbling window, late event handling (2 minutes), and a partitioned S3 sink Configure Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose with a 30-second buffer and a Lambda function for aggregation and partitioning, with no late event support Deploy Amazon EMR with Apache Spark Streaming, a 30-second micro-batch, and a custom script to aggregate and partition to S3 on data to S3 every 30 seconds er: A nation: Managed Service for Apache Flink excels at streaming with a 30-second tumbling wi ent handling (2 minutes), and custom S3 sinks with partitioning (date/equipID).
