A hospital wants to automatically extract patient symptoms and medication names from clinical notes. They have a set of pre-defined categories for symptoms and medications, and they have manually labeled a few hundred sentences to indicate which text spans belong to each category. Which Azure AI Language feature should they use to build this custom entity extraction solution?

A hospital wants to automatically extract patient symptoms and medication names from clinical notes.

Which Azure AI Language feature should they use to build this custom entity extraction solution?

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Good practice is not just finding the correct option. The wrong answers often show the exact trap the exam wants you to fall into.

A

Distractor review

Pre-built entity recognition

Pre-built entity recognition can extract common entities (e.g., person, date) but cannot be customized for specific medical categories like symptoms.

B

Distractor review

Key phrase extraction

Key phrase extraction identifies important phrases but does not classify them into custom categories or extract spans.

C

Distractor review

Custom text classification

Custom text classification assigns a category to the entire document, not extracting specific text spans for entities.

D

Best answer

Custom entity extraction

Custom entity extraction allows you to train a model using labeled examples to extract specific custom entities (e.g., 'symptom', 'medication') from text.

Common exam trap

Common exam trap: NAT rules depend on direction and matching traffic

NAT is not only about the public address. The inside/outside interface roles and the ACL or rule that matches traffic are just as important.

Technical deep dive

How to think about this question

NAT questions usually test address translation, overload/PAT behaviour, static mappings and whether the right traffic is being translated. Read the interface direction and address terms carefully.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.
  • PAT allows many inside hosts to share one public address using ports.
  • Inside local and inside global describe the private and translated addresses.
  • NAT ACLs identify traffic for translation, not always security filtering.

TExam Day Tips

  • Identify inside and outside interfaces first.
  • Check whether the scenario needs static NAT, dynamic NAT or PAT.
  • Do not confuse NAT matching ACLs with normal packet-filtering intent.

Question 1

A developer wants to build a virtual assistant that can understand user intents such as 'Book a flight' or 'Check weather' and extract relevant entities like destination and date. The developer has a small set of labeled example utterances. Which Azure AI Language feature should the developer use?

Question 2

A developer is building a customer support chatbot using Azure OpenAI. The chatbot should never reveal its system instructions or internal configuration. The developer wants to add a rule at the beginning of the conversation to prevent prompt injection attacks. Which technique should they use?

Question 3

A developer is using Azure OpenAI Service to generate product descriptions from technical specifications. The generated descriptions sometimes include plausible-sounding but incorrect details (hallucinations). The developer wants to ensure the model's responses are strictly based on the provided product data and does not add any external or invented information. Which approach should the developer use?

Question 4

A developer is using Azure OpenAI with GPT-4 to build a chatbot that answers legal questions based on a company's internal policy documents. The developer wants the model's responses to be maximally deterministic and factual, avoiding any creative or speculative language. Which parameter should the developer set to the lowest possible value in the API call?

Question 5

A developer is using Azure OpenAI to generate creative product descriptions. The outputs are often repetitive and lack variety. The developer wants to increase the diversity of the generated text while still keeping it coherent. Which parameter should the developer increase?

Question 6

A developer is using Azure OpenAI Service to generate product descriptions. They want the output to be highly focused and deterministic, with less randomness. Which parameter should they decrease?

FAQ

Questions learners often ask

What does this AI-900 question test?

Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.

What is the correct answer to this question?

The correct answer is: Custom entity extraction — Custom entity extraction (part of Azure AI Language's custom text classification/entity extraction) allows training a model on labeled data to extract specific entities. Pre-built entity recognition does not cover custom categories, key phrase extraction only finds important phrases without categorization, and custom text classification assigns labels to entire documents, not extracting spans.
