Soft Computing

Who initiated the idea of Soft Computing

• Charles Darwin

• Lofti A Zadeh

• Rechenberg

• Mc_Culloch

Fuzzy logic is usually represented as

• IF-THEN-ELSE rules

• IF-THEN rules

• Both a & b

• None of the mentioned

The height h(A) of a fuzzy set A is defined as h(A) =sup A(x) where x belongs to A. Then the fuzzy set A is called normal when

• h(A)=0

• h(A)<0

• h(A)=1

• h(A)<1

Consider a fuzzy set old as defined below old={(20,0),(30,0.2),(40,0.4),(50,0.6),(60,0.8),(70,1),(80,1)}. Then the alpha-cut for alpha=0.4 for the set old will be

• {(40,0.3)}

• {50,60,70,80}

• {(20,0.1),(30,0.2)}

• {(20,0),(30,0),(40,1),(50,1),(60,1),(70,1),(80,1)}

Which of the following comparison is true?

• In the event of restricted acess to information, GAs win out in that they require much fewer information to operate than other search.

• Under any circumstances, GAs always outperform other algorithms.

• The qualities of solutions offered by GAs for any problems are always better than those provided by other search.

• GAs could be applied to any problem, whereas certain algorithms are applicable to limited domains.

Which AI system will continue to analyze a problem until it finds the best solution?

• Genetic algorithm

• Neural network
