What is "grid search" as a hyperparameter search strategy, and what is its main drawback?

1. What is "grid search" as a hyperparameter search strategy, and what is its main drawback?
2. What is a practical reason a team might combine Keras Tuner's search with early stopping callbacks during individual trial training?
3. Why might a data scientist choose to retrain the best-found hyperparameter configuration for longer (more epochs, on the full training set) after the search completes, rather than just using the model produced during the search trial itself?
4. What is a "trial" in the context of a Keras Tuner hyperparameter search?
5. Why is manually trying different hyperparameter combinations by hand (e.g. training a model repeatedly with slightly different settings) considered tedious and error-prone at scale?
6. What is Keras Tuner?
7. What is a "hyperparameter," as distinct from a model's learned parameters (weights)?
8. What is the relationship between Keras Tuner and the broader Keras/TensorFlow ecosystem?
9. What is a realistic computational cost consideration when running a large hyperparameter search with Keras Tuner across many trials?
10. Why is it important to evaluate hyperparameter search trials using a validation set rather than the training set's own performance?
11. What does Keras Tuner's support for defining conditional hyperparameters (a hyperparameter whose relevance depends on the value of another hyperparameter) enable?
12. What is "random search" as a hyperparameter search strategy, and how does it compare to grid search?
