Question 260

The technical review is assessing an important boundary of this proposal: Run the PyTorch script with a supported SageMaker framework estimator in script mode. This relates to a situation where a research team has a PyTorch architecture that requires custom losses and callbacks, but wishes to run repeatable managed training jobs with tracked metrics. Which limitation is most important when deciding whether this change is suitable?

  1. The container still needs compatible library versions and explicit output artifact paths.
  2. Aggressive transformations can change the true label for orientation-sensitive defects.
  3. A noisy validation curve requires patience settings to avoid stopping prematurely.
  4. A badly selected metric or overbroad search space can optimize the wrong objective.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

This is a real operational limit for the described design: The container still needs compatible library versions and explicit output artifact paths. The associated control is: Run the PyTorch script with a supported SageMaker framework estimator in script mode. Its intended result is: Custom training logic executes in a managed environment while preserving the team's model code. This limitation must still be managed.

The relevant boundary for this case is: The container still needs compatible library versions and explicit output artifact paths. These are different constraints.

D:

That concern belongs to a different design: A tabular model has expensive training runs and a limited tuning budget; random grid enumeration wastes many trials on poor parameter combinations. The relevant boundary for this case is: The container still needs compatible library versions and explicit output artifact paths. These are different constraints.

Question 261

During risk sign-off, the team must assess this approved design step: Configure SageMaker hyperparameter tuning with Bayesian search over defensible parameter ranges. This relates to a situation where a tabular model has expensive training runs and a limited tuning budget; random grid enumeration wastes many trials on poor parameter combinations. Which limitation is most important when deciding whether this change is suitable?
