​ Using logic to represent and reason we can represent knowledge about the world
with facts and rules.​
a) True​
b) False

Answer: a

2.​ Uncertainty arises in the wumpus world because the agent’s sensors give only
___________​
a) Full & Global information​
b) Partial & Global Information​
c) Partial & local Information​
d) Full & local information

Answer: c​
Explanation: The Wumpus world is a grid of squares surrounded by walls, where each
square can contain agents and objects. The agent (you) always starts in the lower left
corner, a square that will be labeled [1, 1]. The agent’s task is to find the gold, return to [1,
1] and climb out of the cave. So uncertainty is there as the agent gives partial and local
information only. Global variable are not goal specific problem solving.

3.​ A Hybrid Bayesian network contains ___________​


a) Both discrete and continuous variables​
b) Only Discrete variables​
c) Only Discontinuous variable​
d) Both Discrete and Discontinuous variable

Answer: a​
Explanation: To specify a Hybrid network, we have to specify two new kinds of distributions:
the conditional distribution for continuous variables given discrete or continuous parents,
and the conditional distribution for a discrete variable given continuous parents.

4.​ How is Fuzzy Logic different from conventional control methods?​


a) IF and THEN Approach​
b) FOR Approach​
c) WHILE Approach​
d) DO Approach
Answer: a​
Explanation: FL incorporates a simple, rule-based IF X AND Y THEN Z approach to a
solving control problem rather than attempting to model a system mathematically.

5.​ If a hypothesis says it should be positive, but in fact it is negative, we call it


___________​
a) A consistent hypothesis​
b) A false negative hypothesis​
c) A false positive hypothesis​
d) A specialized hypothesis

Answer: c​
Explanation: Consistent hypothesis go with examples, If the hypothesis says it should be
negative but in fact it is positive, it is false negative. If a hypothesis says it should be
positive, but in fact it is negative, it is false positive. In a specialized hypothesis we need to
have certain restrict or special conditions.

6.​ The primitives in probabilistic reasoning are random variables.​


a) True​
b) False

Answer: a​
Explanation: The primitives in probabilistic reasoning are random variables. Just like
primitives in Propositional Logic are propositions. A random variable is not in fact a variable,
but a function from a sample space S to another space, often the real numbers.

7.​ Which is true for Decision theory?​


a) Decision Theory = Probability theory + utility theory​
b) Decision Theory = Inference theory + utility theory​
c) Decision Theory = Uncertainty + utility theory​
d) Decision Theory = Probability theory + preference

Answer: c​
Explanation: The Wumpus world is a grid of squares surrounded by walls, where each
square can contain agents and objects. The agent (you) always starts in the lower left
corner, a square that will be labeled [1, 1]. The agent’s task is to find the gold, return to [1,
1] and climb out of the cave. So uncertainty is there as the agent gives partial and local
information only. Global variable are not goal specific problem solving.
8.​ A constructive approach in which no commitment is made unless it is necessary to
do so is ___________​
a) Least commitment approach​
b) Most commitment approach​
c) Nonlinear planning​
d) Opportunistic planning

Answer: a​
Explanation: Because we are not sure about the outcome.

9.​ How many issues are available in describing degree of belief?​


a) 1​
b) 2​
c) 3​
d) 4
Answer: b​
Explanation: The main issues for degree of belief are nature of the sentences and
the dependance of degree of the belief.

10.​ What is used for probability theory sentences?​


a) Conditional logic​
b) Logic​
c) Extension of propositional logic​
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: c​
Explanation: The version of probability theory we present uses an extension of
propositional logic for its sentences.

11.​ Where does the dependance of experience is reflected in prior probability


sentences?​
a) Syntactic distinction​
b) Semantic distinction​
c) Both Syntactic & Semantic distinction​
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: a​
Explanation: The dependance on experience is reflected in the syntactic distinction
between prior probability statements.
12.​ Where does the degree of belief is applied?​
a) Propositions​
b) Literals​
c) Variables​
d) Statements

Answer: a

13.​ How many formal languages are used for stating propositions?​
a) 1​
b) 2​
c) 3​
d) 4

Answer: b​
Explanation: The two formal languages used for stating propositions are propositional logic
and first-order logic.

14.​ What is the basic element of a language?​


a) Literal​
b) Variable​
c) Random variable​
d) All of the mentioned

Answer: c​
Explanation: The basic element for a language is the random variable, which can be
thought as a part of world and its status is initially unknown.

15.​ How many types of random variables are available?​


a) 1​
b) 2​
c) 3​
d) 4

Answer: c​
Explanation: The three types of random variables are boolean, discrete and continuous.

a) Atomic event​
b) Complex event​
c) Simple event​
d) None of the mentioned

Answer: a​
Explanation: An atomic event is the complete specification of the state of the world about
which the event is uncertain.
