Question
A data engineer is evaluating customer data in Amazon SageMaker Data Wrangler. The data engineer will use the customer data to create a new model to predict customer behavior. The engineer needs to increase the model performance by checking for multicollinearity in the dataset. Which steps can the data engineer take to accomplish this with the LEAST operational effort? (Choose two.)
Options
- AUse SageMaker Data Wrangler to refit and transform the dataset by applying one-hot encoding to
- BUse SageMaker Data Wrangler diagnostic visualization. Use principal components analysis
- CUse the SageMaker Data Wrangler Quick Model visualization to quickly evaluate the dataset and
- DUse the SageMaker Data Wrangler Min Max Scaler transform to normalize the data.
- EUse SageMaker Data Wrangler diagnostic visualization. Use least absolute shrinkage and

Explanation
Multicollinearity occurs when two or more features are highly correlated, which can degrade model performance. SageMaker Data Wrangler provides built-in diagnostic visualizations that can detect this with no custom code. Option B uses Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which identifies directions of maximum variance and reveals correlated feature groups - a standard technique for diagnosing multicollinearity. Option E uses LASSO (Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator), which applies L1 regularization to shrink coefficients of correlated/redundant features toward zero, effectively flagging them. Both are native Data Wrangler diagnostics requiring minimal effort. One-hot encoding (A) handles categorical variables, not correlation. Quick Model (C) provides a general accuracy estimate, not a multicollinearity analysis. Min-Max Scaler (D) normalizes feature ranges but does not address feature correlation.
