- Section C: Attempt ONE question from each pair (a or b). (35 marks)
Why these questions
- Unit 2 (Deep Networks) dominates — 25% avg weightage
- Asked every year: Linear Models (SVM, Perceptron, Logistic Regression), Neural Networks & Shallow Networks
- Most repeated topic: Training a Network (Loss, Backprop, SGD)
Section A – 2-mark questions
- What is the difference between linear regression and logistic regression?
- Discuss convolutional neural network (CNN)?
- Write a short note on ConvNet Architectures (AlexNet, VGG, ResNet).
- Provide examples of optimization algorithms used for deep networks.
- Describe the architecture and training of WaveNet for audio generation.
- Trace the historical development of deep learning that enabled deep networks to outperform traditional machine learning models.
- Write a short note on Recurrent Networks & LSTM.
Section B – sample questions
- Explain the mathematical foundation of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm and describe its kernel trick for non-linear classification problems. How does it differ from logistic regression?
- Explain the optimization problem in deep learning. Why are deep learning loss surfaces highly non-convex? Discuss with suitable diagrams.
- Derive the mathematical expression for the output of a single hidden-layer neural network. Explain the role of activation functions.
