Multiple Choice

Cross-entropy is computationally cheaper to evaluate than MSE Cross-entropy produces stronger gradients when the prediction is far from the target, avoiding slow learning from saturated outputs MSE cannot be used with softmax because their gradients are incompatible Cross-entropy guarantees convergence to the global optimum in convex loss landscapes
