Q1: What are autoencoders? Explain the different layers of autoencoders and mention three practical usages of them.

Autoencoders are one of the deep learning types used for unsupervised learning. There are key layers of autoencoders, which are the input layer, encoder, bottleneck hidden layer, decoder, and output.

The three layers of the autoencoder are:-

  1. Encoder — Compresses the input data to an encoded representation which is typically much smaller than the input data.
  2. Latent Space Representation/ Bottleneck/ Code — Compact summary of the input containing the most…
