C)

to solve tasks like machine vision & natural language processing

D)

All of the Above

Correct Answer : Option (D) : All of the Above

Explanation : These are the basic aims that a neural network achieve.

3 .

What is the trend in software nowadays?

A)

to be versatile

B)

to be task specific

C)

to solve complex problems

D)

to bring computer more & more closer to user

Correct Answer : Option (D) : to bring computer more & more closer to user

Explanation : Software should be more interactive to the user, so that it can understand its problem in a better fashion.

5 .

Which action is faster pattern classification or adjustment of weights in neural nets?

A)

pattern classification

B)

equal

C)

adjustment of weights

D)

either of them can be fast, depending on conditions

Correct Answer : Option (A) : pattern classification

Explanation : Memory is addressable, so thus pattern can be easily classified.

6 .

A)

distributive nature of networks

B)

associative nature of networks

C)

both associative & distributive

D)

7 .

What was the name of the first model which can perform weighted sum of inputs?

A)

Hopfield model of neuron

B)

McCulloch-pitts neuron model

C)

Marvin Minsky neuron model

D)

None of the Above

Correct Answer : Option (B) : McCulloch-pitts neuron model

Explanation : McCulloch-pitts neuron model can perform weighted sum of inputs followed by threshold logic operation.

8 .

What's the main point of difference between human & machine intelligence?

A)

human have emotions

B)

human have sense organs

C)

human have more IQ & intellect

D)

human perceive everything as a pattern while machine perceive it merely as data

Correct Answer : Option (D) : human perceive everything as a pattern while machine perceive it merely as data

Explanation : Humans have emotions & thus form different patterns on that basis, while a machine(say computer) is dumb & everything is just a data for him.
