What is a common application of GANs in the field of image processing?

  • Image classification.
  • Style transfer.
  • Sentiment analysis.
  • Speech recognition.
GANs are frequently used for style transfer, a technique that changes the artistic style of an image. It's commonly employed in fields like art and design for image manipulation and transformation.

If a classifier predicts the positive class perfectly but struggles with the negative class, the ________ might still be high due to the imbalance.

  • AUC-ROC
  • Accuracy
  • F1 Score
  • True Positive Rate
If a classifier predicts the positive class perfectly but struggles with the negative class, the Accuracy might still be high due to class imbalance. Accuracy can be misleading in imbalanced datasets because it doesn't account for the unequal distribution of classes. F1 Score and AUC-ROC are more robust metrics in such cases.

Which component of a GAN is responsible for generating new data samples?

  • Discriminator
  • Loss Function
  • Optimizer
  • Generator
The Generator component in a GAN is responsible for generating new data samples. It tries to create data indistinguishable from real data to deceive the Discriminator.

If a machine learning model inadvertently learns societal biases present in its training data, it can result in ________ outcomes.

  • Biased
  • Fair
  • Unpredictable
  • Equitable
When a model learns societal biases, it can lead to biased outcomes, reinforcing existing prejudices and discrimination. It's crucial to address and mitigate such biases for more equitable results.

Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) are an extension of k-means clustering, but instead of assigning each data point to a single cluster, GMMs allow data points to belong to multiple clusters based on what?

  • Data Point's Distance to Origin
  • Probability Distribution
  • Data Point's Neighbors
  • Random Assignment
GMMs allow data points to belong to multiple clusters based on probability distributions, modeling uncertainty about cluster assignments.

In Policy Gradient Methods, the policy is usually parameterized by ________ and the gradient is taken with respect to these parameters.

  • Neural Networks
  • Q-values
  • State-Action Pairs
  • Rewards
In Policy Gradient Methods, the policy is often parameterized by neural networks. These networks determine the probability distribution of actions.

Policy Gradient Methods often use which of the following to estimate the gradient of the expected reward with respect to the policy parameters?

  • Monte Carlo estimation
  • Finite difference
  • Gradient ascent
  • Random sampling
Policy Gradient Methods often use Monte Carlo estimation to estimate the gradient of the expected reward with respect to policy parameters. It involves sampling trajectories and averaging returns to estimate the gradient.

While t-SNE is excellent for visualization, it can sometimes produce misleading results due to which of its properties?

  • Crowding Problem
  • Curse of Dimensionality
  • Convergence Issues
  • Data Scaling
t-SNE can produce misleading results due to the "Curse of Dimensionality," which can lead to points appearing too clustered together in high-dimensional space, making it challenging to visualize and interpret.

In the context of autoencoders, what is the significance of the "bottleneck" layer?

  • The bottleneck layer reduces model complexity
  • The bottleneck layer enhances training speed
  • The bottleneck layer compresses input data
  • The bottleneck layer adds noise to data
The "bottleneck" layer in an autoencoder serves as the compression layer, reducing input data to a lower-dimensional representation. This compression is essential for capturing essential features in a compact representation, facilitating feature extraction and denoising.

The ________ gate in an LSTM controls which parts of the cell state should be updated.

  • Update
  • Forget
  • Input
  • Output
In an LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory), the update gate (also known as the input gate) regulates which parts of the cell state should be updated based on the current input and previous state.
