"Suppose you are at the top of a mountain, and you have to reach a lake which is at the lowest point of the mountain (a.k.a valley). A twist is that you are blindfolded and you have zero visibility to see where you are headed. So, what approach will you take to reach the lake?"

Network Optimizing Techniques  (Recap)

Improve Data

  • Clean data
  • Get more data
  • Generate more data
  • Remove unnecessary inputs
  • Normalize data
  • Use validation split
  • Make sure test/validation data is representative of real world data

Improve Algorithm

  • Change number of layers
  • Change number of nodes in each layer
  • Change number of epochs / batch size

Takeaways

  1. Visualize everything
  2. Measure your accuracy
  3. Try things until your accuracy improves
