Section A

Long Answers Questions

Attempt any TWO questions.
[2*10=20]
1.
Construct a state space with appropriate heuristics and local costs. Show that Greedy Best First search is not complete for the state space. Also illustrate A* is complete and guarantees solution for the same state space.[10]
2.
How resolution algorithm is used in FOPL to infer conclusion? Consider the facts; Anyone whom Pugu loves is a star. Any hero who does not rehearse does not act. Anmol is a hero. Any hero who does not work does not rehearse. Anyone who does not act is not a star. Convert above into FOPL and use resolution to infer that “If Anmol does not work, then Pugu does not love Anmol”.[10]
3.
Define mathematical model of artificial neural network. Discuss how Hebbian learning algorithm can be used to train a neural network. Support your answer with an example.[10]

What do you mean by membership of an element in a fuzzy set? Given a domain of discourse X={10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70}, construct a fuzzy set from X. Use your own assumptions for defining membership. [5]
9.
