Suppose we have a linearly separable dataset, and we divide the data into training and validation sets. Will a perceptron learned on the training dataset (assuming gradient decent works perfectly well) be guaranteed to have i) 0 error on the training dataset ii) 0 error on the validation dataset. Briefly explain.

i)True

ii)False

Explanation:

i. True

The data given is linearly separable. So, the subset of the data will also be linearly separable. And it will pass for all training data as the model is trained using the training set.

The output using a training set guarantees a hyper plane that perfectly fits and the data sets are separated accordingly.

ii. False

Since the data of the validation set is not known, so it may not result in 100 percent accuracy and there will be errors on the data sets.

Even though the perceptron works well with the training set, it may take a bad decision boundary as the samples are unknown.

the answer is d.

a  social news website  is an  internet  website  that features  user-posted stories. such stories are ranked based on popularity, as voted on by other users of the site or by website administrators. users typically comment online on the news posts and these comments may also be ranked in popularity. since their emergence with the birth of  web 2.0, social news sites have been used to link many types of information, including news, humor, support, and discussion. all such websites allow the users to submit content and each site differs in how the content is moderated. on the  slashdot  and  fark  websites,  administrators  decide which articles are selected for the front page. on  reddit  and  digg, the articles that get the most votes from the community of users will make it to the front page. many social news websites also feature an online comment system, where users discuss the issues raised in an article. some of these sites have also applied their voting system to the comments, so that the most popular comments are displayed first. some social news websites also have a  social networking  function, in that users can set up a user profile and follow other users' online activity on the website.
