Abbreviations

📌 1.3. Forward and Backward Propagation


 Forward Propagation: Computes output from input through layers.
 Backward Propagation: Updates weights using Gradient Descent to minimize the loss
function.

7.4 Regularizations
📌 2.1. Need for Regularization
 Regularization techniques are used to reduce overfitting by introducing a penalty on
complex models, encouraging simpler models with better generalization.
📌 2.2. Types of Regularization
 L1 Regularization (Lasso): Adds a penalty proportional to the absolute value of
weights. Promotes sparsity.
 L2 Regularization (Ridge): Adds a penalty proportional to the square of the weights.
Helps in weight decay.
 Dropout: Randomly drops neurons during training, forcing the network to avoid over-
reliance on specific paths.
 Early Stopping: Monitors validation loss and stops training when performance
degrades.
 Data Augmentation: Introduces variability in training data (e.g., image rotations, flips)
to improve robustness.
📌 6.3. Applications
 Natural Language Processing (NLP): Text generation, language translation, speech
recognition.
 Time-Series Analysis: Stock prices, weather forecasting.

7.7 Convolution Neural Network,


📌 5.1. Purpose
 CNNs are specifically designed for spatial data such as images and videos. They exploit
the spatial hierarchy of data through convolutions.
📌 5.2. Key Components
 Convolutional Layers: Apply filters to extract features.
 Pooling Layers: Reduce dimensionality (e.g., Max Pooling).
 Fully Connected Layers: Make predictions using flattened feature maps.
 Activation Functions: Commonly ReLU and Softmax.
📌 5.3. Use Cases
 Image Classification: (e.g., ImageNet).
 Object Detection: (e.g., YOLO, Faster R-CNN).
 Image Segmentation: (e.g., U-Net).
3.8 Recurrent Neural Network,
📌 6.1. Definition
 RNNs are suitable for sequence data, where previous outputs are used as inputs for the
next step, enabling memory of past information.
📌 6.2. Types of RNNs
 Standard RNNs: Struggle with long-term dependencies due to vanishing gradient
issues.
 Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM): Introduces gates (input, output, forget) to
maintain long-term memory.
 Gated Recurrent Units (GRU): A simplified version of LSTM with fewer parameters.
📌 1.2. Architecture
 Consists of an input layer, multiple hidden layers, and an output layer.
 Activation Functions:
o ReLU (Rectified Linear Unit): Helps in faster convergence.
o Sigmoid/Tanh: Useful for probabilistic outputs but suffer from vanishing
gradient problems.
o Softmax: For multi-class classification in the output layer.
