Question 740
An application promises a cosine distance of 0.2 means an eighty-percent likelihood of correctness. How should the team validate the selected design?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Distance metrics are geometric; they are not automatically confidence probabilities. The observation “Thresholds are linked to measured precision/recall on representative labeled documents” directly confirms the chosen action worked for this situation: An application promises a cosine distance of 0.2 means an eighty-percent likelihood of correctness.
Incorrect Answers
Normalizing vectors changes magnitude while preserving direction for norm-based similarity calculations. This observation would not establish that the required result occurred for An application promises a cosine distance of 0.2 means an eighty-percent likelihood of correctness. The confirming test is: Thresholds are linked to measured precision/recall on representative labeled documents.
ANN tuning requires a measured quality-performance tradeoff, not just benchmark QPS. This observation would not establish that the required result occurred for An application promises a cosine distance of 0.2 means an eighty-percent likelihood of correctness. The confirming test is: Thresholds are linked to measured precision/recall on representative labeled documents.
The SQL external REST invocation provides integration with external services but needs strong endpoint security. This observation would not establish that the required result occurred for An application promises a cosine distance of 0.2 means an eighty-percent likelihood of correctness. The confirming test is: Thresholds are linked to measured precision/recall on representative labeled documents.
