The number of neurons in the output layer should match the number of classes (Where the number of classes is greater than 2) in a supervised learning task.
Now let’s revise the previous slides. We have learned that:
- A neural network is a (crude) mathematical representation of a brain, which consists of smaller components called neurons.
- Each neuron has an input, a processing function, and an output.
- These neurons are stacked together to form a network, which can be used to approximate any function.
- To get the best possible neural network, we can use techniques like gradient descent to update our neural network model.
