Question 11

+5 marksOne or more correct options

Which of the following are advantages of ResNet over VGG-19?

Select all that apply.

  1. A

    ResNet requires fewer parameters than VGG-19 while achieving higher accuracy.

  2. B

    ResNet’s residual connections help mitigate vanishing gradients in very deep networks.

  3. C

    On the CIFAR-10 dataset, ResNet achieves higher training and validation accuracy using significantly fewer convolutional layers than VGG-19.

  4. D

    ResNet models can be trained with depths exceeding 100 layers without suffering from degradation problems.

  5. E

    ResNet blocks require more memory and training time due to the skip connections compared to VGG-19.

  6. F

    VGG-19 is easier to deploy on edge devices because of its lightweight residual architecture.
