Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You have a dataset of 1000 images for a classification task and decide to use the Hold-Out Validation method. If you choose a 70:30 split, how many images will go to training and how many for testing? Discuss what could happen if the images are not randomly selected.

💡 Hint: Study the implications of data distribution in model training.

Challenge 2 Hard

Discuss how you might use Hold-Out Validation results to make decisions about model adjustments. Include potential strategies to avoid overfitting.

💡 Hint: Think about common pitfalls and how to improve model performance.
