Unlike GANs and VAEs, standard autoencoders (AEs) struggle to generate new realistic samples from scratch.What is the fundamental reason for this limitation? (Select one correct answer)

You must train a multi-module pipeline at scale: AE for denoising, G+D for expression generation, CNN for classification. You also must deploy a live demo where users upload photos. The code is large and complicated. — Your manager complains the pipeline is too big and opaque—eight learned modules! A constructive approach? (Single Correct Answer)

PART I – THEORETICAL AND FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE CNNs learn hierarchical features, starting with edges and evolving into complex object representations.If you randomly shuffle pixels in images without modifying their intensity values, which part of a CNN’s feature hierarchy is most affected?

_____________ is the condition in which the fetus/newborn has an insufficient supply of oxygen due to the umbilical cord being compressed during birth. This condition could cause brain damage or even death  

“I just want to die; this wouldn’t happen to anyone else. Everyone will be looking at me!” This statement reflects the ___________ cognitive process.

You want a StyleGAN to add comedic or “cartoonish” flair to a face while preserving expression. Then an AE unifies the style into a standard domain, and a CNN classifies expression as “playful,” “shocked,” etc. — You do a user study: labelers check if the final image truly shows a comedic “playful” look or not. The pipeline sometimes fails on real, subtle smirks. Which is a standard measure?

Brendan is 3 years old. His parents are concerned because he is always running and jumping.  He can’t seem to sit still.  It is especially frustrating when Brendan will not sit still through dinner.  Given what we know about child development, we should know that:
