Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What are hyperparameters?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what you set before starting to train your model.

Question 2

Easy

Why do we use cross-validation?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how often you confirm results in other areas.

Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is a hyperparameter?

  • A value learned during training
  • A pre-defined configuration for learning
  • An output class

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what you specify before the training starts.

Question 2

What is the advantage of Grid Search?

  • Speed
  • Exhaustiveness
  • Randomness

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the trade-off between thoroughness and speed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Suppose you are tasked with tuning a complex neural network with ten hyperparameters, using both Grid Search and Random Search. Discuss the strategy you would use to balance computational resources and effectiveness.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the time trade-offs and risk of missing optimal values.

Question 2

You observe that despite using Grid Search, your model still performs poorly. Analyze possible reasons and suggest alternative strategies.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Reflect on the criteria for setting hyperparameter ranges.
