"We have dubbed the associated results No Free Lunch theorems because they demonstrate that if an algorithm performs well on a certain class of problems then it necessarily pays for that with degraded performance on the set of all remaining problems."

Deep-learning methods are representaUon-learning methods with mulple levels of representaon, obtained by composing simple but non-linear modules that each transform the representaon at one level (starng with the raw input) into a representaon at a higher, slightly more abstract level.

Two models have been built and an evaluation experiment had been performed. Now we must decide which model to use.
