Question 1

If a neural network consistently makes large errors, which part of the Backpropagation process is failing to effectively reduce these errors?
* Type: mcq
* Options: Activation functions, Input Layer, Optimizer, Output Layer's prediction
* Correct Answer: Optimizer
* Explanation: The optimizer is responsible for using the calculated gradients to make effective adjustments to the weights and biases to minimize error. If errors are large, the optimization process might not be working correctly (e.g., poor learning rate, getting stuck in local minima).
* Hint: It's the component that performs the actual adjustments.
