Is this a classification problem or a regression problem? (2 point) 3) In class, normally we considered cost functions which are squares of the differences between y and h(x). Alice has a new idea: she will use cube of the differences instead. That is, the cost function will be the summation of (h(x) - y)^3 divided by 2m. Does this represent a good cost function?
