Artificial Intelligence Applications Questions

Multiple choice

_______ is an interconnected group of artificial neurons and processes information using a connectionist approach to computation.

  1. Neural-network

  2. Network

  3. Inter-network

  4. Intra-network
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

A neural network is indeed an interconnected group of artificial neurons that processes information using a connectionist approach to computation. This architecture mimics biological neural networks in the human brain, where interconnected nodes (neurons) work together to process and learn from data. The other options are too general or refer to different types of networks.

Multiple choice

The ________ data mining technique derives rules from real-world case examples.

  1. rule discover

  2. signal processing

  3. neural nets

  4. case-based reasoning
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Neural networks can derive rules and patterns from real-world examples through training, making them suitable for learning from case data. Rule discovery is a process, not a specific technique. Signal processing deals with analog/digital signal manipulation, while case-based reasoning explicitly retrieves and adapts past cases rather than learning rules.

Multiple choice

Which of the follwing fields is defined as "the study and design of intelligent agents"?

  1. Fuzzy logic

  2. Expert system

  3. Artificial intelligence

  4. Inference engine

  5. Data mining
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Artificial intelligence (AI) is technology and a branch of computer science that studies and develops intelligent machines and software. Major AI researchers and textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents", where an intelligent agent is a system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chances of success.

Multiple choice

A data mining technique can be used for

(a) predicting future trends that are based on the information available (b) knowing previously unknown patterns (c) discovering unknown relationship in the data

  1. Only (a) and (b)

  2. (a), (b) and (c)

  3. Only (b) and (c) only

  4. Only (c)
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Data mining is becoming a strategically important area for many business organisations, including banking sector. It is a process of analysing the data from various perspectives and summarising it into valuable information. Data mining assists the banks to look for hidden patterns in a group and discover unknown relationship in the data. Data mining tools, using large databases, can facilitate automatic prediction of future trends and behaviours and automated discovery of previously unknown patterns.

Multiple choice

According to the passage, what is the meaning of the phrase ‘intelligent decisions’?

Directions: Read the given passage carefully and answer the following question.

Ever since machines were invented, scientists have dreamt of making them learn and perform intelligent tasks – like humans. Artificial intelligence is a branch of science which is into making machines think like humans. These machines, or computers, can store large amounts of information and process them accurately and at an amazing speed. What they lack is an ability to learn and make ‘intelligent decisions’.
Scientists are creating new software programs which try to recreate the process of human learning in a computer, in an attempt to make them ‘think’. These programs try to copy the functioning of the brain. One such program is called a neural network. A neural network is a copy of the brain’s functioning inside a computer, using a software program. It can be taught to recognise patterns. In fact, when it is trained, it can classify and identify patterns in a large amount of information. It can do all this at very high speeds and sometimes faster than humans. This throws open innumerable possibilities.

  1. The ability to recognise patterns

  2. The ability to make quick calculations

  3. The ability to process information accurately

  4. Cannot be determined from the given passage

  5. .

D Correct answer
Explanation

This is correct. The passage mentions ‘intelligent decisions’, but does not describe in greater detail what these decisions are.
