What is a test data set?

Monday, 23 October 2023 by BORIS ILOVAR

A test data set, in the context of machine learning, is a subset of data that is used to evaluate the performance of a trained machine learning model. It is distinct from the training data set, which is used to train the model. The purpose of the test data set is to assess how well

Why is it important to split the data into training and validation sets? How much data is typically allocated for validation?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Splitting the data into training and validation sets is a important step in training convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for deep learning tasks. This process allows us to assess the performance and generalization ability of our model, as well as prevent overfitting. In this field, it is common practice to allocate a certain portion of the

Why is it important to choose an appropriate learning rate?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Choosing an appropriate learning rate is of utmost importance in the field of deep learning, as it directly impacts the training process and the overall performance of the neural network model. The learning rate determines the step size at which the model updates its parameters during the training phase. A well-selected learning rate can lead

Why is shuffling the data important when working with the MNIST dataset in deep learning?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Shuffling the data is an essential step when working with the MNIST dataset in deep learning. The MNIST dataset is a widely used benchmark dataset in the field of computer vision and machine learning. It consists of a large collection of handwritten digit images, with corresponding labels indicating the digit represented in each image. The

What is the purpose of separating data into training and testing datasets in deep learning?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

The purpose of separating data into training and testing datasets in deep learning is to evaluate the performance and generalization ability of a trained model. This practice is essential in order to assess how well the model can predict on unseen data and to avoid overfitting, which occurs when a model becomes too specialized to

Why is it important to scale the input data between zero and one or negative one and one in neural networks?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Scaling the input data between zero and one or negative one and one is a important step in the preprocessing stage of neural networks. This normalization process has several important reasons and implications that contribute to the overall performance and efficiency of the network. Firstly, scaling the input data helps to ensure that all features

Why is it important to balance the training dataset in deep learning?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Balancing the training dataset is of utmost importance in deep learning for several reasons. It ensures that the model is trained on a representative and diverse set of examples, which leads to better generalization and improved performance on unseen data. In this field, the quality and quantity of training data play a important role in

What is the purpose of shuffling the sequential data list after creating the sequences and labels?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

Shuffling the sequential data list after creating the sequences and labels serves a important purpose in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly in the context of deep learning with Python, TensorFlow, and Keras in the domain of recurrent neural networks (RNNs). This practice is specifically relevant when dealing with tasks such as normalizing and creating

Why is it important to address the issue of out-of-sample testing when working with sequential data in deep learning?

Sunday, 13 August 2023 by EITCA Academy

When working with sequential data in deep learning, addressing the issue of out-of-sample testing is of utmost importance. Out-of-sample testing refers to evaluating the performance of a model on data that it has not seen during training. This is important for assessing the generalization ability of the model and ensuring its reliability in real-world scenarios.
