The following are multiple choice questions (with answers) about knowledge and skills in advanced master-level STEM courses. Our task is to classify whether an animal is a dog (class 0) or a cat (class 1) based on the following features: egin{itemize} \item $x_1$: height \item $x_2$: length of whiskers \item $x_3$: thickness of fur \end{itemize} We perform standard normal scaling on the training features so that they have a mean of zero and standard deviation of 1. We have trained a Logistic Regression model to determine the probability that the animal is a cat, $p(1 | \mathbf{x,w})$. Our classifier learns that cats have a lower height and longer whiskers than dogs, while the thickness of fur is not relevant to the classification outcome. Which of the following is true about the weights~$\wv$ learned by the classifier? A. $w_1 < w_2 < w_3$ B. $w_1 < w_3 < w_2$ C. $w_2 < w_1 < w_3$ D. $w_2 < w_3 < w_1$ E. $w_3 < w_1 < w_2$ F. $w_3 < w_2 < w_1$ Answer:
