Data Science and Machine Learning (Theory and Projects) A to Z - Deep Neural Networks and Deep Learning Basics: The Acti

The video tutorial explains the importance of the bias term in neural networks, discussing how it allows hyperplanes to not pass through the origin, which can be crucial for achieving the correct decision boundary. It also covers conventions for counting layers in neural networks, highlighting the difference between counting only hidden layers versus including the output layer. The architecture of fully connected neural networks is described, emphasizing the role of bias and connections between layers. The video concludes with a preview of the next topic: training neural networks.

What is one of the conventions for counting the total number of layers in a neural network?

• Counting only the input layer

• Counting only the output layer

• Counting all layers including the input layer

• Counting all layers excluding the input layer

Why is the bias term important in neural networks?

• It forces all lines to pass through the origin

• It allows hyperplanes to pass through the origin

• It provides an offset, allowing hyperplanes to not be constrained to the origin

• It reduces the number of parameters in the model

What happens if the optimal hyperplane must pass through the origin?

• The bias term will be maximized

• The bias term will automatically become zero

• The bias term will be ignored

• The model will fail to converge

In a fully connected feedforward neural network, what is each neuron connected to?

• A bias and all connections from the next layer

• A bias and all connections from the previous layer

• Only the output layer

• Only the input layer

What can the output of a neural network represent in a classification problem?

• The maximum value of the input features

• The average of all input features

• The probability of each class

• The sum of all input features

What is the next topic to be covered after discussing neural network architecture?

• Advanced neural network architectures

• Training neural networks

• Hyperparameter tuning

• Data preprocessing

What is a hyperparameter in the context of neural networks?

• A parameter that is ignored during training

• A parameter that is set before training

• A parameter that is adjusted automatically

• A parameter that is learned during training
