CompTIA DataX (DY0-001) — Question 54

Which of the following best describes the minimization of the residual term in a LASSO linear regression?

Answer options

• A. |e|
• B. e
• C. 0
• D. e2

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as minimizing the residual term in LASSO linear regression involves minimizing the sum of the squares of the residuals, represented by e2. Options A, B, and C do not accurately reflect the process of minimizing residuals, as they do not consider the squared value which is essential in this context.
