Who founded 'Fuzzy Logic' and 'Fuzzy Set Theory' in 1965?
Professor Lotfi A. Zadeh introduced fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic in 1965 to model vagueness and degrees of truth between 0 and 1.
In gradient descent optimization, what role does the 'Learning Rate' (eta) play?
The learning rate scales the magnitude of parameter updates along the negative gradient vector: w_new = w_old - eta * grad(Loss).
What is the primary motivation for deploying 'Edge AI' (running inference on local edge devices rather than centralized cloud servers)?
Edge AI brings model inference directly to local hardware (e.g. mobile phones, IoT sensors), offering low latency, offline functionality, bandwidth savings, and enhanced data privacy. All listed options are correct.
In A* Graph Search, what condition must the heuristic function h(n) satisfy to guarantee optimality without reopening visited nodes?
Consistency (the triangle inequality for heuristics) ensures that f(n) values along any path are non-decreasing, guaranteeing optimal graph search.
Under Zadeh's standard fuzzy set operators, what is the formula for the Fuzzy Intersection (AND) of two sets A and B?
Zadeh defined fuzzy intersection (t-norm) as the minimum: mu_(A cap B)(x) = min(mu_A(x), mu_B(x)). Fuzzy union uses max.
