ML MCQ Question bank 2 (RCS080)
01. What is Machine learning?
A. The autonomous acquisition of knowledge through the use of computer
programs
B. The autonomous acquisition of knowledge through the use of manual
programs
C. The selective acquisition of knowledge through the use of computer
programs
D. The selective acquisition of knowledge through the use of manual
programs
Answer : A
Explanation: “Machine learning” is the autonomous acquisition of knowledge
through the use of computer programs.
02. What is true about Machine Learning?
A. Machine Learning (ML) is the field of computer science
B. ML is a type of artificial intelligence that extract patterns out of raw
data by using an algorithm or method
C. The main focus of ML is to allow computer systems learn from
experience without being explicitly programmed or human intervention
D. All of the above
Answer : D
Explanation: All the statements are true about Machine Learning.
03. ML is a field of AI consisting of learning algorithms that?
A. Improve their performance
B. At executing some task
C. Over time with experience
D. All of the above
Answer : D
Explanation: Machine learning is a field of AI consisting of learning
algorithms that: Improve their performance (P), At executing some task (T),
Over time with experience (E).
04. Different learning methods do not include?
A. Memorization
B. Analogy
C. Introduction
D. Deduction
Answer : C
Explanation: Different learning methods in the ML do not include
Introdution.
05. Which of the following is a widely used and effective machine
learning algorithm based on the idea of bagging?
A. Decision Tree
B. Random Forest
C. Regression
D. Classification
Answer : B
Explanation: Random Forest
06. High entropy means that the partitions in classification are
A. pure
B. not pure
C. useful
D. useless
Answer : B
Explanation: Entropy is a measure of the randomness in the information
being processed So the higher the entropy, the harder it is to draw any
conclusions from that information. Entropy is a measure of disorder or purity
or unpredictability or uncertainty. So Low entropy means less uncertain and
high entropy means more uncertain.
07. Which of the following are ML methods?
A. Based on human supervision
B. Supervised Learning
C. Semi-reinforcement Learning
D. All of the above
Answer : A
Explanation: The following are various Machine learning methods based on
some broad categories: Based on human supervision, Unsupervised Learning,
Semi-supervised Learning, and Reinforcement Learning.
08. In language understanding, the levels of knowledge do not
include?
A. Phonological
B. Syntactic
C. Empirical
D. Logical
Answer : C
Explanation: In language understanding, the levels of knowledge do not
include empirical knowledge.
09. A machine learning problem involves four attributes plus a class. The
attributes have 3, 2, 2, and 2 possible values each. The class has 3 possible
values. How many maximum possible different examples are there?
A. 12
B. 24
C. 48
D. 72
Answer : D
Explanation: Maximum possible different examples are the products of the
possible values of each attribute and the number of classes so the result
would be
3 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 = 72
10. When performing regression or classification, which of the
following is the correct way to preprocess the data?
A. Normalize the data → PCA → training
B. PCA → normalize PCA output → training
C. Normalize the data → PCA → normalize PCA output → training
D. None of the above
