Parameters
Parameters in machine learning and AI are essential elements that define the model’s architecture, influence its training process, and affect its performance. These settings can include hyperparameters (like learning rate, batch size) and parameters learned during training (weights and biases). Adjusting these values optimizes the model for specific tasks or datasets.
