Newest transactions will be posted on the top. Regularly view this page to see what's going on between other students and the instructor.
All sensitive material such as your name, email address, etc. will be removed, and also any part of code that is not relevant to the discussion will not be uploaded here.

Homework 1 Q/A> Problem 1: > > We can decide the S Boundary and G Boundary by physically observing the > given diagram. Is it required to show each step of the candidate > elimination algorithm or can we mark the boundary on the diagram directly? Just show the S and G boundaries. Mark them in the diagram and show the intervals. a <= x <= b , etc. > Problem 6: > > When you say change of E(w) < 0.00001, I have two values which can > denote > change in E(w). The actual change in E(w) after the previous iteration and > the gradient value d(E(w))/dw. Both values are very similar but not > exactly > the same, and I am getting a slight change in the total number of > iterations > when I use either value. Am I supposed to use a particular value of the > two > or can I choose any of these for the program? Use the change in the E(w) value. > Problem 8: > It says the answer needs to be a polynomial function of w. Does this mean > we should have only polynomial terms (eg: a(n)w^n+a(n-1)w^(n-1)+...) > etc? > Or does it mean that we need to have only w as a variable in the > result(although exponential terms and fractions are allowed in the result > eg: 1/1+e^(-w4+..) etc.. You may have the sigmoid function in the result. > Also do I also need to submit my code for the programs for problems 7,8 > alongwith the solutions? Are we used a particular programming language? > I > have used C. If it is not too long (3-4 pages), include the printout of the code. You may use any language. |
