Artificial Intelligence MCQ – Informed Search Strategy

1 - Question

What is the other name of informed search strategy?
a) Simple search
b) Heuristic search
c) Online search
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: A key point of informed search strategy is heuristic function, So it is called as heuristic function.




2 - Question

How many types of informed search method are in artificial intelligence?
a) 1
b) 2
c) 3
d) 4

View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: The four types of informed search method are best-first search, Greedy best-first search, A* search and memory bounded heuristic search.




3 - Question

Which search uses the problem specific knowledge beyond the definition of the problem?
a) Informed search
b) Depth-first search
c) Breadth-first search
d) Uninformed search

View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Informed search can solve the problem beyond the function definition, So does it can find the solution more efficiently.




4 - Question

Which function will select the lowest expansion node at first for evaluation?
a) Greedy best-first search
b) Best-first search
c) Depth-first search
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: The lowest expansion node is selected because the evaluation measures distance to the goal.




5 - Question

What is the heuristic function of greedy best-first search?
a) f(n) != h(n)
b) f(n) < h(n) c) f(n) = h(n) d) f(n) > h(n)

View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: None.




6 - Question

Which search uses only the linear space for searching?
a) Best-first search
b) Recursive best-first search
c) Depth-first search
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Recursive best-first search will mimic the operation of standard best-first search, but using only the linear space.




7 - Question

Which method is used to search better by learning?
a) Best-first search
b) Depth-first search
c) Metalevel state space
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: This search strategy will help to problem solving efficiency by using learning.




8 - Question

Which search is complete and optimal when h(n) is consistent?
a) Best-first search
b) Depth-first search
c) Both Best-first & Depth-first search
d) A* search

View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: None.




9 - Question

Which is used to improve the performance of heuristic search?
a) Quality of nodes
b) Quality of heuristic function
c) Simple form of nodes
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Good heuristic can be constructed by relaxing the problem, So the performance of heuristic search can be improved.




10 - Question

Which search method will expand the node that is closest to the goal?
a) Best-first search
b) Greedy best-first search
c) A* search
d) None of the mentioned

View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Because of using greedy best-first search, It will quickly lead to the solution of the problem.
