Today's mission

Link data type, task, baseline and architecture without picking the most impressive model.

Proof of success: explain "Choosing an architecture and a baseline", complete "The Council of Four Projects" and name the limit of the analogy.

The story

Four teams arrive at Rania's studio: texture grids, sequences of symbols, made-up sentences and tabular measurements. All of them demand a Transformer. Rania starts with the need, the format and a simple measurable rule. She proposes a CNN for grids, a recurrent sequence or a Transformer for text if context justifies it, and an MLP or even a rule for small tables. The budget and the risk can make the baseline win.
