How to calculate the number of features based on image resolution in neural networks(non-linear hypothesis)?
Came across Andrew Ng's non-linear hypothesis of neural networks where I had an MCQ to find the number of features for an image of resolution 100x100 of greyscale intensities.
And the answer was 50 million, 5 x 10^7.
However, earlier for a 50 x 50…
