Exam 13: Advanced Intelligent Systems

An ________ is an autonomous computer program that observes and acts upon an environment and directs its activity toward achieving specific goals.

STRATASSIST is a fuzzy ES that helps small- to medium-sized firms plan strategically by asking questions in five strategic,competitive areas.

The knapsack problem is a conceptually simple optimization problem that can be solved directly using analytical methods,but it is ideal for illustrating a genetic algorithm approach.

________ deals with the kind of uncertainty and partial information that is inherently human in nature.

________ is the degree to which agents themselves travel through a network.Some agents may be static,either residing on the client machine or initiated at the server.

Genetic algorithms are sets of computational procedures that conceptually follow steps inspired by the biological processes of ________.

What are genetic algorithms?

________ are one of the most popular machine-learning techniques.They belong to the family of generalized linear models and are closely associated with feedforward-type artificial neural networks.

Fuzzy logic systems can be used in conducting property appraisals since it is necessary to use judgment,experience,and intuition to generate estimates.

Crossover means choosing a random position in the string and exchanging the segments ________ of this point with another string.

In machine learning,the ________ is a method for using a linear classifier algorithm to solve a nonlinear problem

________ is the degree of autonomy and authority vested in an agent and can be measured by the nature of the interaction between the agent and other entities in the system.

Which of the following is not an advantage of fuzzy logic?

In unsupervised learning:

Which of the following is not a step in case-based reasoning process?

In the SVM model development process,the main advantage of normalizing or scaling the data is to avoid attributes in greater numeric ranges dominating those in smaller numeric ranges.

Define these three categories of cases--ossified cases,paradigmatic cases,and stories--based on their different characteristics and the different ways of handling them.

Which of the following are special cases that contain rich contents and special features of deep implications?

________ allows the computer to examine historical cases and generate rules that can be used to solve new problems or that can be deployed for automating a decision support process that repeatedly deals with a specific class of problems (e.g.,evaluating loan applications).

________ allows computers to examine historical cases and generate rules that can be chained to solve new problems.
