A wildlife research team uses drone imagery to monitor penguin populations in a remote area. The penguins are small, blend into the rocky background, and are often only partially visible. The team has a limited set of 500 labeled drone images showing penguins. They want to build a system that accurately detects and counts penguins. Which approach should they take using Azure AI services?

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

Use the pre-built Computer Vision object detection API directly.

The pre-built object detection model can detect common objects like cars, people, and animals, but it is not trained to recognize penguins. Its accuracy would be very low for this specific use case.

B

Best answer

Train a Custom Vision object detection model using the labeled images.

Custom Vision enables training a specialized object detection model with a small set of labeled images. With only one object class ('penguin'), 500 images are more than sufficient to achieve good accuracy for detection and counting.

C

Distractor review

Use the Computer Vision Image Analysis API with the 'dense captioning' feature.

Dense captioning generates descriptions for regions of an image, but it is not designed for precise object detection or counting. It also relies on pre-trained models that do not include penguins.

D

Distractor review

Train a Custom Vision image classification model with the labeled images.

Image classification only tells whether a penguin is present in the image, not where it is or how many there are. For counting exact individuals, object detection or instance segmentation is required.

Common exam trap

Common exam trap: OSPF can fail even when IP connectivity looks correct

OSPF neighbour formation depends on matching areas, timers, network type, authentication and passive-interface behaviour. Do not choose an answer only because the devices can ping.

Technical deep dive

How to think about this question

OSPF questions usually test the details that control adjacency and route selection. Read the neighbour state, area, router ID and interface configuration before deciding what is wrong.

KKey Concepts to Remember

  • OSPF neighbours must agree on key parameters.
  • Router ID selection can affect neighbour relationships and LSDB output.
  • OSPF cost influences the preferred path.
  • A route can appear in OSPF information but not become the installed route.

TExam Day Tips

  • Check area mismatch first when OSPF adjacency fails.
  • Review passive interfaces when a network is advertised but no neighbour forms.
  • Use show ip ospf neighbor and show ip route clues carefully.

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?

OSPF neighbours must agree on key parameters.

What is the correct answer to this question?

The correct answer is: Train a Custom Vision object detection model using the labeled images. — The pre-built Computer Vision object detection model is not trained to detect penguins, so a custom model is necessary. Custom Vision allows training with as few as 50 images per class (here just one class: penguin), and object detection is the right capability for counting and localizing. Image classification does not provide location, and semantic segmentation produces pixel masks but for counting, object detection is usually more efficient and requires less labeling effort. Training a custom model with Custom Vision is the most effective and cost-efficient given the small dataset.
