Question 15

+3 marksOne or more correct options

A hidden layer in the feed_forward network of a CNN contains 5 neurons labelled A,B,C,D,E. We apply dropout to this hidden layer to prevent overfitting. During training the following observations occured - Epoch 1 - B and E were dropped out Epoch 2 - A and D were dropped out Select the false statements :

Select all that apply.

  1. A

    During epoch 3 of training C will be dropped out

  2. B

    During epoch 4 of training none of the neurons will be dropped out for sure since all of them have been dropped in one of the previous epochs.

  3. C

    During inference all of A,B,C,D and E have equal chances of being dropped out

  4. D

    During inference none of the neurons will be dropped out.
