Classifier Output Analysis
An engineer is building a model to classify text into one of three sentiment categories: 'Positive', 'Negative', or 'Neutral'. For a specific piece of text, the layer just before the final activation function produces the numerical scores [3.5, -2.0, 3.5] for 'Positive', 'Negative', and 'Neutral' respectively. The engineer observes that the final output probabilities for 'Positive' and 'Neutral' are identical and significantly higher than the probability for 'Negative'. Evaluate this observation. Is this the expected behavior? Justify your reasoning by describing how the final activation function processes its input scores to produce a probability distribution.

Maximum Probability Decision Rule
Consider a 4-class classification problem where the final layer of a model produces the following pre-activation scores for a single input:
[1.0, 2.0, 1.5, 5.0]. The model then uses an activation function that exponentiates each score and normalizes the results to produce a probability distribution. Without performing the full calculation, which of the following statements best describes the resulting probability distribution?Calculating an Output Probability
