10. What are the possible values of A, B, and C in the following diagram?
Choose the correct option:
  • a) A – Training Set, B – Domain Set, C – Cross-Validation Set

  • b) A – Training Set, B – Test Set, C – Cross-Validation Set

  • c) A – Training Set, B – Test Set, C – Domain Set

  • d) A – Test Set, B – Domain Set, C – Training Set

Domain Set comprises of the total input data set. It is usually divided into a training set, a test set and a cross-validation set in the ratio 3:1:1. Since the learner learns about the data set from the training set, the later is usually larger than the test and cross-validation set.

3. The error available to the learner is ______
Choose the correct option:
  • a) true error

  • b) error of the classifier

  • c) training error

  • d) testing error

The learner only knows about the error it incurred over the training set instances. It is minimized by the learner to produce the labeling function. This is then used on the testing set to generate a testing error. The error produced by randomly selecting an instance from the dataset, and misclassifying it using the labeling function.

10. In PAC learning, sample complexity grows as the logarithm of the number of hypothesizes.
Choose the correct option:
  • a) False

  • b) True

Sample complexity is the number of training examples required to converge to a successful hypothesis. It is given by m >= 1/e (ln |H| + ln (1/d)), where m is the number of training examples and H is hypothesis space.

1. What is present in the version space of the Find-S algorithm in the beginning?
Choose the correct option:
  • a) Set of all hypotheses H

  • b) Both maximally general and maximally specific hypotheses

  • c) Maximally general hypothesis

  • d) Maximally specific hypothesis

Initially, only the maximally specific hypothesis is contained. That is generalized step by step after encountering every positive example. At any stage, the hypothesis is the most specific hypothesis consistent with training data.

10. It is possible that in the output, set S contains only phi.
Choose the correct option:
  • a) False

  • b) True

Initially, set S contains only phi. It states that no example is positive. If there is no positive example in the dataset, the set will not change. Even after a complete iteration, S will remain the same and will contain only phi.
