What is the term for the three-dimensional image reconstructed from a hologram?
-
Hologram
-
Interferogram
-
Virtual image
-
Real image
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The three-dimensional image reconstructed from a hologram is called a virtual image, as it appears to be located behind the hologram.

What is the term used for the process of automatically generating realistic images or videos from a given text description?
-
Image generation
-
Video generation
-
Text-to-image synthesis
-
Text-to-video synthesis
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Text-to-image synthesis involves generating realistic images from a natural language description. This task requires the model to understand the semantics of the text and generate visually plausible images.
