Solution Statement (A) is false. Entailment means if $\alpha$ is true, then $\beta$ must be true in all models where $\alpha$ is true. Correct definition is: $\alpha\models\beta$ means $\beta$ is true in every model in which $\alpha$ is true. But statement (A) says few worlds, so it is false. Statement (B) is true. Forward chaining and backward chaining are natural reasoning algorithms for Horn form knowledge bases. Statement (C) is false. Sound inference algorithm derives only those sentences that are logically entailed. But deriving all entailed sentences is the property of completeness, not soundness. Statement (D) is true. Propositional logic does not scale well to environments of unbounded size because it cannot represent general rules using variables and quantifiers. Therefore, true statements are (B) and (D).

(C) The alpha-beta search algorithm computes the same optimal moves as minimax algorithm.

UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science Nov 2020 (Paper II) PYQ
Solution Minimax search is generally implemented using depth-first search, not breadth-first search. Statement (B) is true. Alpha-beta pruning depends highly on the order in which states are examined. If the best moves are examined first, more pruning is possible. Statement (C) is true. Alpha-beta pruning does not change the final result of minimax. It only reduces the number of nodes examined. So, alpha-beta search computes the same optimal move as minimax. Statement (D) is false. In games of imperfect information, optimal play requires reasoning about current and future belief states of each player. Therefore, true statements are (B) and (C).

Solution Greedy Best-First Search selects the node that appears closest to the goal according to heuristic value. It may get trapped and can be incomplete even if the search space is finite. So, (A) matches with II. $A^*$ search is optimal and complete under proper conditions, but its computation and space complexity are very high because it stores many generated nodes. So, (B) matches with IV. Recursive Best-First Search uses limited memory and its space complexity is linear in depth. So, (C) matches with I. $SMA^*$ means Simplified Memory-Bounded $A^*$. It is optimal if the optimal solution is reachable within available memory; otherwise, it returns the best reachable solution. So, (D) matches with III. Final matching is: A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III

Given below are two statements: Statement I: A genetic algorithm is a stochastic hill-climbing search in which a large population of states is maintained. Statement II: In nondeterministic environments, agents can apply AND-OR search to generate contingent plans that reach the goal regardless of which outcomes occur during execution. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Both Statement I and Statement II are true 2
Both Statement I and Statement II are false 3
Statement I is correct but Statement II is false 4
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true Go to Discussion
UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET PYQ
UGC NET Computer Science UGC NET Computer Science Nov 2020 (Paper II) PYQ
Solution Statement I is incorrect. A genetic algorithm maintains a population of states, but it is generally considered a variant of stochastic beam search, not simple stochastic hill-climbing. Hill-climbing usually works with one current state, while genetic algorithm works with a population of states and uses selection, crossover and mutation. So, Statement I is false. Statement II is true. In nondeterministic environments, actions may have more than one possible outcome. AND-OR search is used to handle such situations. It generates contingent plans, where the next action depends on the outcome that actually occurs. So, Statement II is true. Therefore, Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is true.

Solution $\alpha-\beta$ pruning is an optimization technique used with the minimax algorithm in game playing search trees. It can be applied at any depth of the game tree. It is not restricted to only one particular level. Now check each statement: (A) Root $(0)$ level At the root level, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ values are initialized and the search starts from this level. So, $\alpha-\beta$ pruning can be applied from root level. Therefore, statement (A) is correct. (B) $6$ level If the game tree is searched up to depth $6$, then $\alpha-\beta$ pruning can be applied up to level $6$. Therefore, statement (B) is correct. (C) $8$ level Similarly, if the game tree is searched up to depth $8$, then $\alpha-\beta$ pruning can also be applied up to level $8$. Therefore, statement (C) is correct. (D) Depends on utility value in a breadth first order This is incorrect because $\alpha-\beta$ pruning is normally applied using depth first search, not breadth first search. It depends on $\alpha$ and $\beta$ values during depth first minimax search. Therefore, only (A), (B) and (C) are correct.

From the right subtree, the available minimum values make the right side value less than or equal to $5$.
Now, root is a $MAX$ node, so it selects maximum of left and right subtree values.

Solution Statement I says: Grandparent is a parent of one's parent. This is correct. For example, if $g$ is parent of $p$ and $p$ is parent of $c$, then $g$ is grandparent of $c$. Now check Statement II: $\forall g,c\ grandparent(g,c)\Leftrightarrow \exists p\ parent(g,p)\land parent(p,c)$ This means: For all $g$ and $c$, $g$ is grandparent of $c$ if and only if there exists some $p$ such that $g$ is parent of $p$ and $p$ is parent of $c$. This is the correct FOPL representation of the grandparent relation. Therefore, both Statement I and Statement II are correct.

Solution In the given game tree:
$\square$ represents MAX node
$\circ$ represents MIN node
So, we evaluate the tree from bottom to top using the minimax rule.
At MIN node, minimum value is selected.
At MAX node, maximum value is selected.
From the left side of the tree:
$\min(17,19)=17$
After applying MAX and MIN levels, the left subtree gives value:
$17$
From the right side of the tree:
The available minimum values include $15$ and $14$, so the right subtree gives a value less than $17$.
At the root node, we have MAX node.
So root will select maximum value:
$\max(17,14)=17$
Therefore, the value of the root node is:
$17$

Now,
$t(1-x,1-y)=\dfrac{(1-x)(1-y)}{(1-x)+(1-y)-(1-x)(1-y)}$

Now,
$s(x,y)=1-\dfrac{1-x-y+xy}{1-xy}$

Solution Convert chromosomes into decimal form:
$(01101)_2=13$
$(11000)_2=24$
$(01000)_2=8$
$(10011)_2=19$
Now calculate $f(x)=x^2$
For $13$:
$f(13)=13^2=169$
For $24$:
$f(24)=24^2=576$
For $8$:
$f(8)=8^2=64$
For $19$:
$f(19)=19^2=361$
Now,
$\sum f(x)=169+576+64+361=1170$
Strength of fitness for chromosome $(11000)$:
$Sf(24)=\dfrac{576}{1170}$
$Sf(24)=0.4923$
In percentage:
$0.4923\times 100=49.23%\approx 49.2$

Solution Using best first search, we always choose the next node with the minimum available cost.
From $A$:
$A \to C = 2$
$A \to F = 7$
So, choose $C$.
From $C$:
$C \to F = 3$

So, choose $F$.
From $F$:
$F \to D = 1$
$F \to E = 6$
So, choose $D$.
From $D$:
$D \to E = 2$
$D \to Z = 7$
So, choose $E$.
From $E$:
$E \to Z = 4$
Hence, the traversal order before reaching $Z$ is:

Read the below passage and answer the questions.
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are computational models inspired by the human brain’s neural networks. They consist of interconnected nodes, or neurons, organized into layers: an input layer, one or more hidden layers and an output layer. Each connection between neurons has a weight that adjusts as learning progresses allowing the network to adapt and improve its performance. ANNs are particularly effective in recognizing patterns making them valuable for tasks such as image and speech recognition, natural language processing and predictive analytics. Learning in ANNs typically involves training algorithms like back propagation, which minimize the error by adjusting the weights. As a subset of machine learning, ANNs have revolutionized the field of Artificial Intelligence by providing solutions to complex problems that traditional algorithms struggle with.

Solution Utility-based agent works with utility value. Utility value tells how good or bad a state is for the agent. A happy state means higher utility. An unhappy state means lower utility. So, the agent that deals with happy and unhappy states is Utility-based agent.Breadth-First Search gives optimal solution when all step costs are equal. Uniform-cost search gives optimal solution when step costs may be different but non-negative. So, Statement I is true. When all step costs are same, Uniform-cost search behaves like Breadth-First Search. It expands nodes in increasing path-cost order, which becomes same as increasing depth order. So, it does not expand more nodes at depth $d$ than Breadth-First Search. Therefore, Statement II is false.

Solution The sentence says there exists some country $c$. So, we use existential quantifier: $\exists c$ That country must satisfy three conditions: $c$ is a country. $c$ borders India. $c$ borders Pakistan. So, the correct expression is: $\exists c\ [Country(c)\land Border(c,India)\land Border(c,Pakistan)]$ Option (b) is incorrect because implication does not force $c$ to be a country that borders both. Option (c) is incorrect because it separates existence of country from border condition. Option (d) is syntactically incorrect because $Country(c)$ is a predicate, not an object to be used inside $Border$.

For a fuzzy set $A$, the $\lambda$-cut is defined as:
$$A_\lambda = \{x \mid \mu_A(x) \ge \lambda\}$$
Union Property: $(A \cup B)_\lambda = A_\lambda \cup B_\lambda$ ✅
Intersection Property: $(A \cap B)_\lambda = A_\lambda \cap B_\lambda$ ✅
Monotonicity: If $\lambda \le \beta$, then $A_\beta \subseteq A_\lambda$ ✅
Complement: $\mu_{\overline{A}}(x) = 1 - \mu_A(x)$ ⇒ $(\overline{A})_\lambda = \{x \mid 1 - \mu_A(x) \ge \lambda\} = \{x \mid \mu_A(x) \le 1 - \lambda\}$ ❌
Hence, $(\overline{A})_\lambda$ is not equal to $A_\lambda$, even when $\lambda = 1$.
Therefore, the statement “except when $\lambda = 1$” is incorrect.

Solution $A^*$ algorithm uses the evaluation function:
$f(n)=g(n)+h(n)$
where,
$g(n)$ is the cost from start node to current node.
$h(n)$ is the estimated cost from current node to goal node.
$A^*$ is optimal when the heuristic function $h$ is admissible.
Admissible means:
$h(n)$ never overestimates the actual cost.
So, $A^*$ always finds the solution with the lowest total cost when $h$ is admissible.

Solution The question asks about understanding associations and relationships between objects and events.
In Artificial Intelligence, symbolic representation is used to represent facts, objects, events, and their relationships.
Here, "Relative symbolism" means representing relationships among different objects and events using symbols.
Heuristic processing is used for problem-solving using rules of thumb.
Cognitive science studies human thinking and intelligence.
Pattern matching is used to identify similar patterns.
So, the technique related to associations and relationships is Relative symbolism.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Dendral is an expert system
Reason R: The rationality of an agent is not related to its reaction to the environment.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options
given below.
1
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A 2
Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A 3
A is true but R is false 4

Solution Dendral is an expert system. It was a groundbreaking AI project developed in the
1960s and 1970s aimed at automatically deducing the structure of organic molecules
based on their mass spectrometry data. So, assertion A is correct.
The second statement, however, is incorrect. The rationality of an agent in AI is very
much related to its reaction to its environment. Rational agents should be able to
make decisions based on their perceptions of the environment in order to achieve the
best possible outcome or, in the case of uncertainty, the best expected outcome.
Therefore, reason R is false

Solution In a genetic algorithm, solution representation refers to how the potential solutions, or individuals in the population, are encoded. The given options can be categorized as follows:
• Binary valued: Represents solutions using binary encoding, where each gene is typically represented as either 0 or 1.
• Real valued: Represents solutions using real numbers, allowing for a more continuous representation.
• Permutation: Represents solutions as permutations of elements, where the order of elements matters.
• Combinations: This is not a standard representation in genetic algorithms. While permutations represent ordered arrangements, combinations represent unordered selections of elements. Genetic algorithms typically use representations that capture the structure and relationships among elements, and combinations may not be suitable for many optimization problems.

For the fuzzy sets
$A = {(x_1,0.3), (x_2,0.7), (x_3,0.4)}$ and
$B = {(x_1,0.5), (x_2,0.2), (x_3,0.5)}$, the $A \cap B$ would be:

${(x_1,0.3),(x_2,0.7),(x_3,0.4)}$ 2
${(x_1,0.5),(x_2,0.2),(x_3,0.5)}$ 3
${(x_1,0.5),(x_2,0.7),(x_3,0.5)}$ 4

Solution For fuzzy sets, the intersection operation is defined as:
$\mu_{A \cap B}(x) = \min(\mu_A(x), \mu_B(x))$
Now compute for each element:
$x_1$ : $\min(0.3, 0.5) = 0.3$
$x_2$ : $\min(0.7, 0.2) = 0.2$
$x_3$ : $\min(0.4, 0.5) = 0.4$
Thus,
$A \cap B = {(x_1,0.3),(x_2,0.2),(x_3,0.4)}$
