 The business problem of predicting whether a new credit card applicant will default on a credit card payment can be framed as a binary classification problem. Binary classification is the task of predicting a discrete class label output for an example, where the class label can only take one of two possible values. In this case, the class label can be either “default” or “no default”, indicating whether the applicant will or will not default on a credit card payment. A binary classification model can return the probability that a given applicant belongs to each class, and then assign the applicant to the class with the highest probability. For example, if the model predicts that an applicant has a 0.8 probability of defaulting and a 0.2 probability of not defaulting, then the model will classify the applicant as “default”. Binary classification is suitable for this problem because the outcome of interest is categorical and binary, and the model needs to return the probability of each outcome.

To secure calls to the Amazon SageMaker Service API, the ML specialist should take the following steps:

Modify the security group on the endpoint network interface to restrict access to the instances. This will allow the ML specialist to control which instances in the VPC can communicate with the VPC interface endpoint for the Amazon SageMaker Service API. The security group can specify inbound and outbound rules based on the instance IDs, IP addresses, or CIDR blocks1.

Add a SageMaker Runtime VPC endpoint interface to the VPC. This will allow the ML specialist to invoke the SageMaker endpoints from within the VPC without using the public internet. The SageMaker Runtime VPC endpoint interface connects the VPC directly to the SageMaker Runtime using AWS PrivateLink2.

The other options are not as effective or necessary as the steps above. Adding a VPC endpoint policy to allow access to the IAM users is not required, as the IAM users can already access the Amazon SageMaker Service API through the VPC interface endpoint. Modifying the users’ IAM policy to allow access to Amazon SageMaker Service API calls only is not sufficient, as it does not prevent unauthorized instances from accessing the VPC interface endpoint. Modifying the ACL on the endpoint network interface to restrict access to the instances is not possible, as network ACLs are associated with subnets, not network interfaces3.

The MAPE of the predictor could be improved by making the following changes to the CreatePredictor API call:

Set PerformAutoML to true. This will allow Amazon Forecast to automatically evaluate different algorithms and choose the one that minimizes the objective function, which is the mean of the weighted losses over the forecast types. By default, these are the p10, p50, and p90 quantile losses1. This option can help find a better algorithm than DeepAR+ for the given data.

Set PerformHPO to true. This will enable hyperparameter optimization (HPO), which is the process of finding the optimal values for the algorithm-specific parameters that affect the quality of the forecasts. HPO can improve the accuracy of the predictor by tuning the hyperparameters based on the training data2.

The other options are not likely to improve the MAPE of the predictor. Setting ForecastHorizon to 4 will reduce the number of time steps that the model predicts, which may not match the business requirement of predicting next month’s inventory. Setting ForecastFrequency to W for weekly will change the granularity of the forecasts, which may not be appropriate for the monthly data. Setting FeaturizationMethodName to filling will not have any effect, since there is no missing data in the dataset.
