  Ada Lovelace was an English mathematician and writer who is widely credited as the pioneer of computer programming. In 1842, she wrote an article in which she outlined the fundamental principles of computing, making her the first person

  to recognize the potential of computers and to describe algorithms that could be used to program them. Her work laid the basis for modern computing and is recognized as one of the most significant contributions to the field of computing.

• Question 22:

  Para View allows large data sets to be visualised on a parallel computer.

  Which of the following is one of the techniques used?

  A. Norm calculation.
  B. Dashboard.
  C. Contour plot
  D. Eigen function analysis.
  C. Contour plot

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  ParaView is an open-source, multi-platform visualization application that allows large data sets to be visualized on a parallel computer. ParaView uses a variety of techniques to visualize data, including contour plots, which are useful for

  visualizing 3D data sets. Contour plots are created by plotting a set of curves connecting points of equal value, with each curve representing a particular value. This allows 3D data sets to be visualized in a 2D format, making it easier to

  understand the data.

• Question 23:

  What is defined as a philosophy, or set of assumptions and/or techniques, which characterise an approach to a class of problems?

  A. An approach.
  B. A set
  C. A paradigm.
  D. An algorithm.
  C. A paradigm.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  A paradigm is defined as a philosophy, or set of assumptions and/or techniques, which characterise an approach to a class of problems. Paradigms are often used in Artificial Intelligence to provide a structure for problem solving, allowing for

  better understanding of the problem and providing a framework for developing a solution. For example, the logic-based approach is a paradigm that uses logical reasoning to solve problems.

• Question 24:

  Which factor of a Waterfall' approach is most likely to result in the failed delivery of an Al project?

  A. Takes longer to deliver all functional requirements.
  B. Discourages collaboration and cross boundary communication.
  C. Takes longer to complete the design phase of the project.
  D. Discourages revisiting and revising any prior phase once it is complete.
  D. Discourages revisiting and revising any prior phase once it is complete.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  The Waterfall approach is a sequential design process in which each phase of development must be completed before the next phase can begin. This means that once a phase is complete, it is difficult to go back and make changes, as any

  changes made to the project could potentially affect all the other phases. As a result, the Waterfall approach can make it difficult to adapt to changing customer requirements or adjust to new technology. This can ultimately lead to the failed

  delivery of an AI project.

• Question 25:

  An Al agent relies on its perceptual input. This is called the agent's what?

  A. Position
  B. Environment
  C. World
  D. Percept
  D. Percept

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  Performance Measure of Agent It is the criteria, which determines how successful an agent is.

  Behavior of Agent It is the action that agent performs after any given sequence of percepts.

  Percept It is agent's perceptual inputs at a given instance. Percept Sequence It is the history of all that an agent has perceived till date. Agent Function It is a map from the precept sequence to an action.

  Agent Terminology

  https://www.tutorialspoint.com/artificial_intelligence/artificial_intelligence_agents_and_environments.htm

  An AI agent relies on its perceptual input, which is referred to as the agent's percept. This is the data that the agent collects through its sensors about its environment. The percept allows the agent to make decisions and take actions based on

  its environment. The agent's percept is important for Artificial Intelligence systems to be able to operate effectively.

• Question 26:

  What is defined as a machine that can carry out a complex series of tasks automatically?

  A. A robot
  B. A production line.
  C. A computer.
  D. An autonomous vehicle.
  C. A computer.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  A computer is defined as a machine that can carry out a complex series of tasks automatically. Computers are used in a variety of applications, including artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, production lines, and autonomous vehicles.

  Computers are able to carry out complex tasks thanks to their ability to process large amounts of data quickly and accurately.

• Question 27:

  From the Ell's ethics guidelines for Al, what does 'The Principle of Autonomy,' mean?

  A. Robots will have freewill.
  B. Al agents will behave as humans.
  C. Al systems will be human-centric
  D. Al systems will preserve human agency.
  D. Al systems will preserve human agency.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  The Principle of Autonomy from the ELL's ethics guidelines for Al states that Al systems should be designed in a way that preserves human agency and responsibility. This means that Al systems should be designed in a way that allows humans to remain in control of their decisions, and that the Al system should not be able to act without human input or permission.

• Question 28:

  In an Al project the domain expert is the person...

  A. with technical and managerial oversight of the business plan
  B. who manages the agile project and writes the technical terms of reference
  C. who measures the trustworthiness of the Al system
  D. with special knowledge or skills in the area of endeavour and defines what is fit for purpose'
  D. with special knowledge or skills in the area of endeavour and defines what is fit for purpose'

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  In an AI project, a domain expert is a person with special knowledge or skills in that particular area of endeavour, and they are responsible for defining what is "fit for purpose" for the project. The domain expert provides insights into the

  problem and suggests ways to address it. They also provide guidance on evaluating and validating the AI system and its outputs. The domain expert is also responsible for communicating with stakeholders and providing feedback on the

  progress of the project.

  D. A robot that takes the place of a human.
  C. A robot that uses Al techniques.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  An intelligent robot is one that uses AI techniques, such as machine learning and natural language processing, to perceive, plan and act on its environment. Intelligent robots are able to process large amounts of data quickly and accurately, allowing them to make decisions and carry out tasks autonomously. Intelligent robots can be used in a variety of applications, from industrial automation to healthcare.

• Question 30:

  Human-centric trustworthy Al must be...

  A. quality assurance certified.
  B. continually assessed and monitored.
  C. financially sustainable.

  B. continually assessed and monitored.

  ---

  Explanation/Reference:

  Human-centric trustworthy Al must be continually assessed and monitored in order to ensure that it is behaving in a safe and ethical manner. This includes conducting regular tests and audits to ensure that the Al is functioning as intended, and is not taking any actions or decisions that could potentially harm humans or their environment.
