How should we choose the dimensions of the encoding layer in auto-encoders?

The number of dimensions is a hyperparameter of your model, and you should do a hyperparameter search, like with any other parameters. There's also a tradeoff between dimension and training speed, so it should be small enough to be trainable in a reasonable time.
