Senior Machine Learning Engineer Interview Experience - Belgrade, Serbia
Process
I had three sections:
- Classical machine learning and programming
- Algorithms
- Computer vision specialization
I found the machine learning section pretty relevant. Algorithms are part of the culture, and that's okay. I was completely disappointed in the computer vision section. It had little in common with reality.
Questions
I have the code for a DL model and its training process. The task is to fix it.
Write a formula for cross-entropy loss.
Why do we use an odd kernel size in a conv layer?
