While it is a little dated, one amusing example that has been the source of countless internet memes is the famous, “is this a chihuahua or a muffin?” classification problem. Figure 01: Is this a chihuahua or a muffin? In this example, the Machine Learning (ML) model struggles to differentiate between a chihuahua and a muffin. The eyes and nose of a chihuahua, combined with the shape of its head and colour of its fur do look surprising like a muffin if we squint at the images in figure 01 above.
