Each question carries 01 Mark each.
Q1. Within a logical-agent approach, agents almost never have access to the whole truth about
their environment. Agents must therefore act under uncertainty. Identify the probable reason
/ reasons of uncertainty.
A. Incompleteness in the agent's understanding of the properties of the environment.
B. Options, choices, and preferences of the properties of the environment.
C. Use of formal language for representing and reasoning about the environment.
D. Incorrectness in the agent's understanding of the properties of the environment.
Ans: Direct question from Week 7 (Lecture 2 ) Videos
Q2. Belief networks is a powerful tool for representing and reasoning with uncertain knowledge.
It is a graph in which the following holds:
A. A set of random variables makes up the nodes of the network.
B. Some nodes have a conditional probability table that quantifies the effects that the parent
nodes have on the node.
C. It is a directed acyclic graph.
D. A set of directed links or arrows connects pairs of nodes.
Ans: Direct question from Week 7 (Lecture 2 ) Videos
Q3. Modelling with Bayesian Networks require an assumption: There are no direct dependencies
in the system being modelled which are not already explicitly shown via arcs. This is referred
to as the ___________.
A. Bayesian Dependency
B. Markov Property
C. Bayesian Property
D. Arc Consistency
Ans: Direct question from Week 7 (Lecture 2 ) Videos
Q4. __________ provides ways and means of weighing up the desirability of goals and the
likelihood of achieving them.
A. Decision Theory
B. Utility Theory
C. Probability Theory
D. Bayesian Networks
Ans: Direct question from Week 7 (Lecture 3) Videos

Ans:
Sunday night Rohan is finishing up preparing for the Fundamentals of AI Examination that is
coming up on Monday. Rohan has already mastered all the topics except one: Decision Networks.
He is contemplating whether to spend the remainder of his evening reviewing that topic (Review),
or just go to sleep (Sleep). Decision Networks are either going to be on the test (+d) or not be on
the test (-d). His utility of satisfaction is only affected by these two variables as shown below:
D A U(D,A)
D A +d Review 1000
D P(D) -d Review 600
+d 0.5 +d Sleep 0
-d 0.5 -d Sleep 1500
