1.

Did you attempt the last exercise sheet?

a)

Yes

b)

No

2.

I usually have questions (after/during) the lecture/tutorial...

a)

afterwards but don't end up asking

b)

I still need time to go over the material

c)

I can ask them

d)

during but ...

3.

I understand things better when...

a)

I go over the material on my own time

b)

I browse for alternative material

c)

...I've tried everything and I'm still lost

d)

...I'll deal with understanding later. Let's move on.

e)

... we discuss them in lecture and/or tutorial

4.

An RNN can be used to classify an entire time series (T/F)

a)

True

b)

False (we must see the prediction at every time step)

c)

False, RNNs are not classifiers

d)

What's a time series?

5.

The Backpropagation algorithm...

a)

is a learning algorithm

b)

computes the EXACT gradients.

c)

APPROXIMATES the gradients

d)

is a classification model

6.

Backpropagation through time...

a)

is a learning algorithm

b)

computes the exact gradients.

c)

approximates the gradients

d)

is a classification model

7.

Unfolding an RNN in time means

a)

turning the RNN into a feedforward network

b)

recomputing the EXACT same operation at t=1 over and over

c)

Making an RNN go back in time.

8.

Weights in an unfolded RNN...

a)

The weight matrices between sucessive layers are duplicates of W

b)

The W's between time steps are always different.

9.

RNNs are difficult to train because of...

a)

exponential forgetting

b)

unfolding an RNN is very tricky

c)

no one really understands how to implement an RNN

d)

vanishing gradient problem

10.

exponential forgetting (A) vs. (B) vanishing gradients

a)

Both have to do with computational complexity.

b)

(B): applies to feedforward networks only

c)

Both lead to the same problem

d)

(A): activity at t is insensitive to t=0 (B) multiplying small derivatives

11.

Which weights are trained in echo state networks?

a)

W

b)

V

c)

U

d)

x
