In this era of deep learning, almost every data scientist must have used the dropout layer at some moment in their career of building neural networks. But, why dropout is so common? How does the dropout layer work internally? What is the problem that it solves? Is there any alternative to dropout? If you have similar questions regarding dropout layers, then you are at the correct place. In this blog, you will discover the intricacies behind the famous dropout layers. After completing this blog, you would be comfortable answering different queries related to dropout and if you are more of an innovative person, you might come up with a more advanced version of dropout layers. Let’s start… :) This blog is divided into the following sections: So before diving deep into its world, let’s address the first question. What is the problem that we are trying to solve? The deep neural networks have different architectures, sometimes shallow, sometimes very deep trying to generalise on the given da
