Consider the following PyTorch code: class ThreeLayerNet (nn.Module): def __init__(): super().__init__() def forward(x): x = nn.Linear(100, 10)(x) x = nn.ReLU()(x) x = nn.Linear(10, 200)(x) x = nn.ReLU()(x) x = nn.Linear(200, 1)(x) return x Suppose that inputs are 100-dimensional, and outputs are 1-dimensional. What will happen if we try to train this network?

[ "There will be an error because we are re-using the variable x throughout the forward() method.", "There will be an error because the second layer has more neurons than the first. The number of neurons must never increase from one layer to the next.", "The model will not train properly. The performance will be the same at the beginning of the first epoch and at the end of the last epoch.", "Everything is fine." ]

You are using a 3-layer fully-connected neural net with \textbf{ReLU activations}. Your input data has components in [0, 1]. \textbf{You initialize your weights by sampling from $\mathcal{N}(-10, 0.1)$ (Gaussians of mean -10 and variance 0.1)}, and set all the bias terms to 0. You start optimizing using SGD. What will likely happen?

[ "The gradient is 0 so nothing happens", "The gradient is very large so the model can't converge", "Training is fine, but our neural net does only as well as a linear model", "Everything is fine" ]
