Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of the Gradient Descent algorithm in linear regression?

  • To minimize the cost function (correct)
  • To add noise to the data
  • To make the model more complex
  • To maximize the cost function
  • In the context of linear regression, what does J(θ₀,θ₁) represent?

  • The cost function (correct)
  • The learning rate
  • The parameters of the model
  • The number of iterations
  • How does the learning rate affect the Gradient Descent algorithm?

  • Learning rate determines the number of iterations
  • Higher learning rate leads to faster convergence (correct)
  • Lower learning rate leads to faster convergence
  • Learning rate has no impact on convergence
