o Intelligence

o Artificial Intelligence

o Agent

o Rationality

o logical reasoning.

2. What’s the difference between a world state, a state description, and a search

node? Why is this distinction useful?

3. Give the name of the algorithm that results from each of the following special

cases:

o Local beam search with k = 1.

o Local beam search with one initial state and no limit on the number of

states retained.

o Simulated annealing with T = 0 at all times (and omitting the termination

test).

o Simulated annealing with T = ∞ at all times.

o Genetic algorithm with population size N = 1.

4. Which of the following are true and which are false? Give brief explanations.

o In a fully observable, turn-taking, zero-sum game between two perfectly

rational players, it does not help the first player to know what strategy the

second player is using— that is, what move the second player will make,

given the first player’s move.

o In a partially observable, turn-taking, zero-sum game between two

perfectly rational players, it does not help the first player to know what

move the second player will make, given the first player’s move.

o A perfectly rational backgammon agent never loses.
