Batch Size in Deep Learning 📊 Small vs Large Batches Explained

Does batch size really matter in deep learning? 🤔 Absolutely! Choosing the right batch size can make the difference between a model that generalizes well and one that overfits or trains inefficiently.

In this video, we’ll dive deep into the effects of batch size, breaking it down for both beginners and professionals.

🔑 What you’ll learn in this video:

✅ What batch size is and why it matters in training neural networks

✅ Small batches: better generalization, regularization effect, but slower per epoch

✅ Large batches: faster per epoch, stable gradients, but risk of generalization gap

✅ Key impacts: training speed, convergence quality, memory usage, generalization

✅ How to choose batch size: hardware limits, dataset size, model complexity, and scaling learning rate

💡 Key Insight: Batch size is all about trade-offs. Smaller batches often lead to better generalization, while larger batches give stability and speed. The best choice depends on your data, hardware, and goals.
