Explain one in detail with example.
Discuss characteristics of AI systems? Where it can be
placed in a data pyramid?
What is knowledge? Is it Intelligence? Give one example of
data, information and knowledge in an application of your
choice.
Distinguish (i) natural and artificial intelligence (ii) man and
machine.

3. Knowledge Based System Questions:
What is Knowledge Based System? Give general structure of a KBS. List five categories
of KBS with one line description.
Define ES. Give example of two early expert systems. Also give general structure of ES.
What is ES shell? What does it contains in its knowledge base?
What is the process of knowledge acquisition? What is the role of KE? How he should
behave? Give the process diagram of the knowledge acquisition.
How knowledge can be updated? What is machine learning? Who will users of ES?
What is the knowledge representation encompasses? What are the components of
knowledge? Which one of them plays an important role in problem solving?
Define constants, variables, function and predicate in formal representation of knowledge.
Distinguish functions and predicates. Name one programming language, which supports
this approach.

4. Fuzzy Logic questions:
Define fuzzy logic. How does it differ from the crisp logic?
Define membership function. Develop a membership function for a strict teacher.
How “AND” and “OR” operations are defined on fuzzy sets? What are the operations on the
fuzzy set? (AND, OR and NOT ). How are they defined?
List three application of fuzzy logic in (medical science).
What are the advantages of using fuzzy logic for control system?
Give structure (diagram) of a typical fuzzy control based system.
What are the basic limitations of the fuzzy systems?
What is the notion of linguistic variable? Explain with example.
Four jobs are vacant namely a,b,c, and d, where f(a)=30,000; f(b)=25,000; f(c)=20,000;
f(d)=15,000 with the constraints as given below.
(1) job should be interesting (c1=0.4/a +0.6/b +0.8/c + 0.6/d) and
(2) close to residence of the candidate (c2=0.1/a +0.9/b +0.7/c + 1/d). Define and calculate the
fuzzy decision D.
