You create a datastore named training_data that references a blob container in an Azure Storage account. The blob container contains a folder named csv_files in which multiple comma-separated values (CSV) files are stored.
You have a script named train.py in a local folder named ./script that you plan to run as an experiment using an estimator. The script includes the following code to read data from the csv_files folder:
You have the following script.
You need to configure the estimator for the experiment so that the script can read the data from a data reference named data_ref that references the csv_files folder in the training_data datastore.
Which code should you use to configure the estimator?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Answer : B
Explanation:
Besides passing the dataset through the input parameters in the estimator, you can also pass the dataset through script_params and get the data path (mounting point) in your training script via arguments. This way, you can keep your training script independent of azureml-sdk. In other words, you will be able use the same training script for local debugging and remote training on any cloud platform.
Example:
from azureml.train.sklearn import SKLearn
script_params = {
# mount the dataset on the remote compute and pass the mounted path as an argument to the training script
'--data-folder': mnist_ds.as_named_input('mnist').as_mount(),
'--regularization': 0.5
}
est = SKLearn(source_directory=script_folder,
script_params=script_params,
compute_target=compute_target,
environment_definition=env,
entry_script='train_mnist.py')
# Run the experiment
run = experiment.submit(est)
run.wait_for_completion(show_output=True)

You have an Azure blob container that contains a set of TSV files. The Azure blob container is registered as a datastore for an Azure Machine Learning service workspace. Each TSV file uses the same data schema.
You plan to aggregate data for all of the TSV files together and then register the aggregated data as a dataset in an Azure Machine Learning workspace by using the Azure Machine Learning SDK for Python.
You run the following code.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:
Answer :
Explanation:
Box 1: No -
FileDataset references single or multiple files in datastores or from public URLs. The TSV files need to be parsed.
Box 2: Yes -
to_path() gets a list of file paths for each file stream defined by the dataset.
Box 3: Yes -
TabularDataset.to_pandas_dataframe loads all records from the dataset into a pandas DataFrame.
TabularDataset represents data in a tabular format created by parsing the provided file or list of files.
Note: TSV is a file extension for a tab-delimited file used with spreadsheet software. TSV stands for Tab Separated Values. TSV files are used for raw data and can be imported into and exported from spreadsheet software. TSV files are essentially text files, and the raw data can be viewed by text editors, though they are often used when moving raw data between spreadsheets.

You create a multi-class image classification deep learning model.
The model must be retrained monthly with the new image data fetched from a public web portal. You create an Azure Machine Learning pipeline to fetch new data, standardize the size of images, and retrain the model.
You need to use the Azure Machine Learning SDK to configure the schedule for the pipeline.
Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
Select and Place:
Answer :
Explanation:
Step 1: Publish the pipeline.
To schedule a pipeline, you'll need a reference to your workspace, the identifier of your published pipeline, and the name of the experiment in which you wish to create the schedule.
Step 2: Retrieve the pipeline ID.
Needed for the schedule.
Step 3: Create a ScheduleRecurrence..
To run a pipeline on a recurring basis, you'll create a schedule. A Schedule associates a pipeline, an experiment, and a trigger.
First create a schedule. Example: Create a Schedule that begins a run every 15 minutes: recurrence = ScheduleRecurrence(frequency="Minute", interval=15)
Step 4: Define an Azure Machine Learning pipeline schedule..
Example, continued:
recurring_schedule = Schedule.create(ws, name="MyRecurringSchedule", description="Based on time", pipeline_id=pipeline_id, experiment_name=experiment_name, recurrence=recurrence)

You plan to run a script as an experiment using a Script Run Configuration. The script uses modules from the scipy library as well as several Python packages that are not typically installed in a default conda environment.
You plan to run the experiment on your local workstation for small datasets and scale out the experiment by running it on more powerful remote compute clusters for larger datasets.
You need to ensure that the experiment runs successfully on local and remote compute with the least administrative effort.
What should you do?
- A. Do not specify an environment in the run configuration for the experiment. Run the experiment by using the default environment.
- B. Create a virtual machine (VM) with the required Python configuration and attach the VM as a compute target. Use this compute target for all experiment runs.
- C. Create and register an Environment that includes the required packages. Use this Environment for all experiment runs.
- D. Create a config.yaml file defining the conda packages that are required and save the file in the experiment folder.
- E. Always run the experiment with an Estimator by using the default packages.
Answer : C
Explanation:
If you have an existing Conda environment on your local computer, then you can use the service to create an environment object. By using this strategy, you can reuse your local interactive environment on remote runs.
