Python for Deep Learning - Build Neural Networks in Python - Important Terminologies

The video tutorial introduces key mathematical concepts, starting with the differential function, which is essentially the slope representing the change in the Y axis relative to the X axis. It then explains monotonic functions, which are functions that are either entirely increasing or decreasing across their domain. The tutorial concludes with a brief introduction to activation functions, setting the stage for further exploration.

What does a differential function primarily represent?

• The maximum value of a function

• The rate of change in the Y axis with respect to the X axis

• The total area under a curve

• The average value of a function over an interval

Which of the following best describes a monotonic function?

• A function that is either entirely increasing or decreasing over its domain

• A function that is constant over its domain

• A function that oscillates between increasing and decreasing

• A function that has a maximum and minimum point

What term is used to describe a function that is increasing or decreasing across its entire domain?

• Strictly monotonic function

• Non-linear function

• Linear function

• Periodic function

What is the next topic introduced after discussing monotonic functions?

• Integral calculus

• Linear algebra

• Activation functions

• Differential equations

What is the primary focus of the section following the discussion on monotonic functions?

• Exploring different types of activation functions

• Reviewing previous topics

• Introducing new mathematical theorems

• Discussing the history of calculus
