1) Which of the following definitions correctly defines the State-space in an AI system?
- A state space can be defined as the collection of all the problem states
- A state space is a state which exists in environment which is in outer space
- A state space is the total space available for the agent in the state
- All of the above
Correct answer: 1
A state space can be defined as the collection of all the problem states
All the possible states for an AI system together form the state space. The state-space means the collection of all those states in which the agent can be.
2) State whether the following condition is true or false?
"An AI agent cannot be in any other state except for those included in the state space for that particular system."
- True
- False
Correct answer: 1
True
An AI system can be only in a state that is defined in its state space. This is because the state space is the collection of all the possible states that the system can be in. Hence, there exists no other state except for these in which the system can reside.
3) Which of the mentioned definitions correctly define 'move' for an AI agent?
- When the agent moves from one place to another, then it is called the move of the agent
- When the agent goes from one state to another, it is known as a move
- Both (1) and (2)
- None of the above
Correct answer: 2
When the agent goes from one state to another, it is known as a move
The "move" of an agent is defined with respect to the state it changes and not with respect to its actual position.
4) "The complete set of rules for defining the valid movements of an AI agent for changing the states"
What does the above definition refer to?
- Documentation for an AI agent
- Production rules for an AI agent
- Pseudo Code for an AI agent
- None of the above
Correct answer: 2
Production rules for an AI agent
The production rules for an AI agent are the complete set of rules for defining the valid movements of an AI agent for changing the states.
5) State whether the following condition is true or false?
"Fault tolerance of a system can be defined as the ability of a system to sustain failures and continue functioning."
- True
- False
Correct answer: 1
True
The given statement is true and is the definition of Fault tolerance of the system.
