When working with time-series data, is it wrong to use different time-steps for the features and target?
When working with time-series data, is it wrong to use daily prices as features and the price after 3 days as the target?
Or should I use the next-day price as a target, and, after training, predict 3 times, each time for one more day ahead (using…

Is soft labeling the same thing as label smoothing?
I have some data with soft labels and I am trying to figure out the best approach to solve the problem with Machine Learning (since regular classification is of the table, i.e. hard labels). However, whenever I look up "soft label" materials, I keep…

What is the intuition behind the Label Smoothing in GANs?
I was learning about GANs when the term "Label Smoothing" surfaced. In the video tutorial that I watched, they use the term "label smoothing" to change the binary labels when calculating the loss of the discriminator network. Instead of using 1,…

Should the range of target values match the range of activation function used in the output layer?
Suppose I use a tansig activation function in the output layer of an artificial neural network giving me outputs in the range $[-1,1]$ and my model is applied to a binary classification problem, should my target labels be -1 and 1 or 0 and 1? I've…
