Questions and Answers

Why are different weights assigned to the inputs in an artificial neuron?

  • To emphasize the relative importance of the different inputs (correct)
  • To ensure all inputs are equally important in calculating the output
  • To strengthen the less important inputs
  • To weaken the more important inputs

What is the mathematical form of the operation performed by an artificial neuron?

  • $x_1w_1 + x_2w_2 + x_3w_3$
  • $x_1w_1 + x_2w_2 + x_3w_3 + b$
  • $f(x_1w_1 + x_2w_2 + x_3w_3 + b)$ (correct)
  • All of the above

What is the key difference between an artificial neuron and linear regression?

  • Artificial neurons use weights and bias, while linear regression uses only coefficients
  • Artificial neurons can model non-linear relationships, while linear regression can only model linear relationships
  • Artificial neurons apply an activation function, while linear regression does not
  • Both b and c (correct)
