Quiz covering Hyperparameter Tuning

What you'll be asked

  1. What is the primary purpose of defining a 'search space' when performing hyperparameter tuning?
  2. Which of the following is an example of a 'discrete' hyperparameter search space?
  3. When configuring a search space for a model's learning rate, why is a 'log-uniform' distribution often preferred over a 'uniform' distribution?
  4. If you are using a Random Search strategy, how does the size of your search space affect the experiment duration?
  5. You are tuning a deep neural network and notice that your current search space for 'number of layers' is [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. If you observe that the best-performing models consistently cluster around 9 and 10 layers, what should you do to improve your search efficiency?
