We start by understanding the basics of hyperparameters such as learning rate, activation, and batch size. Through a step-by-step walkthrough, we learn how to adjust these parameters for optimal model performance.
We also delve into a key aspect of regularization: Activation Regularization. Using the XOR dataset as an example, we discuss the impact of noise and outliers on our models, and how regularization helps mitigate these issues.
Key Topics Covered:

Next, we explore how to configure a neural network on the Playground, focusing on the number of hidden layers and nodes. We discuss how a complex model can lead to overfitting and demonstrate how to use L2 Regularization to address this.
🚀 Avoiding Overfitting: Learn how to choose the right regularization rate for your model. By tweaking the regularization rate, we observe the impact on the training and test errors.
Further, we introduce Dropout Regularization, another powerful technique to prevent overfitting. Through the Dropout method, we randomly drop nodes during training, creating a more robust model.
