Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider an input image where a specific pattern (like a circle) is present. Design a convolutional layer with appropriate filters to detect this pattern. Explain your reasoning.

💡 Hint: Think about what features would help identify the circle.

Challenge 2 Hard

Propose a way to evaluate the effectiveness of different filter sizes (e.g., 3x3 vs. 5x5) in a convolutional layer for feature extraction.

💡 Hint: How do filter sizes affect the detail and complexity of captured features?
