Assertion and reasoning-based questions:
Options: (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation for A
(b) Both A and R are true and R is not the correct explanation for A
(c) A is True but R is False
(d) A is false but R is True
Q1. Assertion(A) : Unsupervised Learning is a type of learning without any guidance.
Reasoning(R) : Unsupervised learning models work on unlabeled datasets, where the data fed into the
machine is random and the person training the model may not have any prior information about it.
Q2. Assertion (A): Information processing in a neural network relies on weights and biases assigned to nodes.
Reasoning (R): These weights and biases determine how strongly a node is influenced by its inputs and its
overall contribution to the next layer.
Answer the following questions:
Q1. Give a difference between rule based and learning based AI models.
Q2. What is supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement learning? Explain with examples.
Q3. What is clustering and how is it different from classification?
Q4. Explain neural networks. Also give functions of three layers of neural networks.
Q5. Differentiate between classification and regression model.
Q6. What is neural network? Give the functioning of its three layers?
Q7. Identify the type of learning (supervised, unsupervised, reinforcement learning) are the following case
studies most likely based on?
a) Case Study 1: A company wants to predict customer churn based on past purchasing behavior,
demographics, and customer interactions. They have a dataset with labeled examples of customers who churned
and those who did not.
b) Case Study 2: A social media platform wants to group users based on their interests and behavior to
recommend relevant content. They have a large dataset of user interactions but no predefined categories.
Which type of learning is this case study most likely based on?
c) Case Study 3: An autonomous vehicle is learning to navigate through a city environment. It receives
feedback in the form of rewards for reaching its destination safely and penalties for traffic violations.
Which type of learning is this case study most likely based on?
d) Case Study 4: A healthcare provider wants to identify patterns in patient data to personalize treatment plans.
They have a dataset with various patient attributes but no predefined labels indicating specific treatment plans.
Which type of learning is this case study most likely based on?
e) Case Study 5: A manufacturing company wants to optimize its production process by detecting anomalies in
sensor data from machinery. They have a dataset with examples of normal and anomalous behavior.
Which type of learning is this case study most likely based on?

have a dataset containing information such as income, credit score, loan amount, and employment status.
b) A real estate agency wants to predict the selling price of houses based on various features such as size,
location, number of bedrooms, and bathrooms. They have a dataset containing historical sales data.
c) A marketing company wants to segment its customer base into distinct groups based on purchasing behavior
for targeted marketing campaigns. They have a dataset containing information such as purchase history,
frequency of purchases, and amount spent.
