Question 1

What is the main purpose of RNNs?

  • To process static data
  • To handle sequential data
  • To reduce overfitting
  • To increase dimensionality

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about data types that have an order.

Question 2

True or False: GRUs simplify the architecture of LSTMs by combining the input and forget gates.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how gates are structured in each type.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Imagine you are training a vanilla RNN to perform sentiment analysis on movie reviews. Explain how the challenges of vanishing gradients might affect your model's performance.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how the structure of RNNs processes inputs over sequences.

Question 2

Design a scenario where using a GRU would be more beneficial than using an LSTM. Provide reasoning for your choice.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how resource constraints can impact model choice.
