Explain the Min-Max algorithm with an example.

The Min-Max algorithm is used in decision making and game theory, where the computer evaluates possible moves by assuming the opponent will also make the best move. An example is in chess, where the computer evaluates all possible moves and their outcomes to make the best decision. Signup and view all the answers

Explain the Depth-First Search algorithm.

Depth-First Search is a graph traversal algorithm that starts at the root node and explores as far as possible along each branch before backtracking. It is often used in maze solving and puzzle games. Signup and view all the answers

Explain the Bidirectional Search algorithm.

Bidirectional Search is a graph search algorithm that operates two simultaneous searches, one forward from the start node and one backward from the goal node, and stops when the two searches meet in the middle. Signup and view all the answers

Explain Alpha–Beta pruning with a proper example.

Alpha–Beta pruning is a search algorithm that reduces the number of nodes evaluated in a Min-Max search tree. An example is in game-playing programs, where it speeds up the search for the best move by ignoring branches that are unlikely to influence the final decision. Signup and view all the answers

List the problems associated with Hill climbing.

Some problems of Hill climbing include getting stuck in local maxima or minima, being sensitive to the initial state, and not being able to backtrack. Signup and view all the answers

Explain the structure of an AI Agent using the PEAS framework. Provide an example of an AI agent and its corresponding PEAS description.

The PEAS framework stands for Performance measure, Environment, Actuators, and Sensors. For example, a self-driving car's PEAS description would be: Performance measure - Safe and efficient navigation; Environment - Roads, traffic, pedestrians; Actuators - Steering wheel, brakes, accelerator; Sensors - Cameras, lidar, radar.

Explain the concept of Alpha-Beta Pruning and provide an example of a game or problem where it can be used to improve search efficiency.

Alpha-Beta Pruning is a search algorithm that reduces the number of nodes evaluated in a minimax tree. It can be used in game-playing programs, such as chess, to efficiently search for the best move by pruning branches that are guaranteed to be worse than previously examined moves.

Describe the role of actuators, sensors, and effectors in the context of AI systems. Provide examples of each component in a real-world AI application.

Actuators are devices that perform actions based on AI system decisions, e.g., robotic arms in manufacturing. Sensors capture data from the environment, e.g., cameras in autonomous vehicles. Effectors modify the environment based on AI system actions, e.g., robotic grippers in warehouse automation. Signup and view all the answers

Explain how Reinforcement Learning works and provide an example of a real-world application that utilizes Reinforcement Learning.

Reinforcement Learning involves an agent learning to make decisions by receiving feedback in the form of rewards or penalties. An example application is training a robot to navigate through a maze by rewarding successful movements and penalizing collisions. Signup and view all the answers
