    "Effective loss functions for computer vision models vary depending on the specific task, some commonly used loss functions for different tasks: Classification Cross-Entropy Loss:Used for multi-class classification tasks. Measures the difference between the predicted probability distribution and the true distribution. Binary Cross-Entropy Loss:Used for binary classification tasks. Evaluates the performance of a model by comparing predicted probabilities to the true binary labe"

It is likely the servers were storing session data on the server themselves (in-memory), and thus when user makes a request, the load balancer routes this to a different server than the one they started with, that second server may not recognise the user's session. This could prompt the user to log in again. One way to resolve this, is to use a centralised session storage, something like"

    "Given the dataset does not contain many labels, it implies we cannot directly use supervised learning. I would ask more about the type of dataset we are given. Is it images, text, etc? This may inform the types of transformations we do the dataset. I can see two approaches to training Given the labels we do have, we can find a method to generate labels for the other unlabeled data. This likely will introduce some error since they may not be true labels, but it at least allows processing the"
