Welcome to the community! This is your first post

Regarding your question: “How we can choose number of units and layer”, I’d like to share with you another post where this exact question is answered:

# of nodes in a layer

Hi @lzednik , The number of nodes, and even the hidden layers, are determined by the architect of the NN: by you, by me, by the person or group that is creating the NN. There are several options: You can get started with a known model which has been created by some researchers, and this model proposes already a certain amount of layers, and nodes inside of each layer. You can start from scratch. 2.1 Assuming you are a very experienced ML designer, may be you’ll get started with a configurat…

Please read that post and let me know if this clarifies your question.

Thanks!
