stage of AI Project development, problems are identified. It is
then followed by
• Data Acquisition,
• Data Exploration, Unit 2 2
• Modelling and
• Evaluation of the project.
Problem scoping refers to the identification of a problem and the
vision to solve it.
(2 marks for any one correct point with explanation)

Q. 14 Computer Vision:
Computer Vision (CV) is a process of using digital images and videos to
gain stronger insights from users. Computer vision is a field of Artificial
Intelligence. It gives power to a machine such as the computer to interpret
the world around it. It can read and study all digital images captured by
• Cameras, Unit 5 2
• Smartphones or
• CCTV, etc.
With the help of deep learning. It can identify or classify objects
and then react accordingly.
(1 marks for explanation of CV and 1 marks for examples of CV)
Q. 15 NLP:
The NLP is everywhere, while sending e-mails, text recommendations,
filtering unwanted e-mails, translation services on Facebook, fake news
detection, IVR application, etc. Some of the applications of NLP are as
follows: (any two)
a. E-mails:
E-mail filters are one of the most basic and initial applications of NLP,
online. It started with filtering spam and uncovering certain words or
phrases that signal a spam message.
b. Smart Assistant:
Smart assistants such as Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa recognise
patterns in speech, then infer meaning and provide a helpful response.
c. Automatic Summarization:
We have data everywhere, but we don’t have the time to read all that.
In other words, when we need to access a specific and important piece
of information from a huge knowledge base, it is like digging a
mountain. Automatic summarization can help in this scenario. It is
used to summarize the meaning of documents and information used to
understand the emotional meanings within the information. It is mainly
used to provide an overview of a news item or blog post while
avoiding redundancy from multiple sources and maximizing the
diversity of content obtained.
d. Language Translations: Unit 6 2
NLP is also used to translate one language into another. They give the
best results according to the syntax of that grammar.
e. Fake News Detection:
NLP can be used for fake news detection.
f. Medical benefits:
It can be used predict disease as the patient can talk to Chatbot freely
and it can help to detect the disease according to the symptoms.
Arogyasetu app used during COVID-1, is the best example of NLP. It
detects the risk according to the symptoms you tell to that bot.
g. Interactive Voice response (IVR) Application:
These are very frequently used applications of NLP. When you call
any service provider, the one who takes input from you is a Chatbot
and then take action accordingly with the help of NLP.
h. Semantics Analysis:
The semantics of any language can be checked easily. Grammarly and
Ginger are good examples of this.
i. Personal Voice Assistant:
These may be installed on your phone or you may take the device for
that purpose but they do the same task as they work based on your
voice instructions.
(1 mark for explanation of NLP and ½ marks for the valid
justification of any 2 type of application of NLP)
Q. 16 F1 Score:
F1 score can be defined as the measure of the balance between Precision
and Recall. An ideal situation would be when we have a value of 1 (100%)
for Precision and Recall. In that case, the F1 score would also be an ideal 1
(100%). It is known as the perfect value for the F1 Score. As the values of
both Precision and Recall ranges from Unit 7 2
0 to 1, the F1 score also ranges from 0 to 1.
F1 Score=2*
(1 marks for any one correct point with explanation and 1 marks
for formula of F1 Score)
Answer any 3 out of the given 5 questions in 50– 80 words each (4 x 3 = 12 marks)
Q. 17 Driverless Car
Driverless Cars collets data from:
• Radar,
• Cameras,
• GPS and
• Cloud services
To produce control signals and operate the car like a real human being. It
can also detect an object and drives around without human interactions.
• Driverless Cars uses ML: to detect the objects on road in real-
time.
Unit 1 4
• Uses Google Maps: learn from the real-time traffic situations and
suggests you the best path at the path of time.
It also predicts the time to reach the destination.
• Uses CV system:
To scan live objects and analyse them, based on which the car
decides to keep running or to stop.

(1 mark for explanation of Driverless Car collecting data from where

and 1 marks for each of 3 uses of technologies to drive without human
interactions with explanation and example)
Q. 18 Stages of AI Project Cycle:
Every AI project goes through 5 phases. These five stages are:
• Problem Scoping,
• Data Acquisition,
• Data Exploration,
• Modeling and
• Evaluation
The length and details may vary from project to project, but all follow the
same basic framework.
a. Problem Scoping:
Problem scoping is the first stage of the AI project cycle. In this
stage of AI project development, problems are identified. It is then
followed by Data Acquisition, Data Exploration, Modelling and
Evaluation of the project. There are many types of problems, which
we face in our daily lives. Some problems are big, some are small,
some need immediate attention and some can be ignored. Unit 2 4
Sometimes, problems become part of our life and we are not able to
find their solution. Problem scoping refers to the identification of a
problem and the vision to solve it.
b. Data Acquisition:
The world data acquisition is formed from two words: first is data,
which means the raw facts, figures, piece of acts or statistics
collected for reference or analysis. The other is acquisition which
means acquiring data for the project. So that next step is to collect
the data. In an AI project, a large amount of data is needed to train
the model. The data can be collected from various sources. If you
have an AI project that predicts crop production in a particular year,
you have to feed the data such as type of seed, last year’s crop
production, climate, etc. This is the data by which AI machine is
trained. Once machine training is complete, it is ready to predict the
crop production, climate, etc. The previous year’s details are called
training data. The predicted next crop production is testing data.
 The stage of acquiring data from relevant sources is known as data
acquision.
c. Data Exploration:
While collecting data, we will notice that all data is not in the same
format, for example, date formats can be dd/mm/yy, dd/mm/yyyy,
etc. The data we have collected from various sources is full of
numbers and the quantity of data is so much that one cannot make
sense out of it. To take a fruitful decision from the collected data,
we need to summarise it, identify trends and the pattern in the data.
By observing the pattern, one can make the decision easily. Let’s
take an example. Suppose if you want to find a book you want to
read. You may go to the library. There will be too large in number.
Ou then try to find something which interests you. We then choose
that book for reading. Similarly, to analyse the data, we need to
visualize the data I some user-friendly formats so that the trends and
patterns can be found easily.
d. Modelling:
Data in the computer is stored in the most basic from of numbers
(Which is binary-0s and 1s). But when we talk about discovering
patterns and trends in data, then the machine goes for mathematical
representations of same. The model. Thus, whenever we talk about
developing between parameters is the heart of ever AI model. Thus,
whenever we talk about developing AI models, it is the
mathematical approach towards analysing data that we refer to.
e. Evaluation:
Once a model has been made and trained, it needs to go through
proper testing o calculate its efficiency and performance. Hence, the
model is tested with the help of testing data (Which was separated
from the acquired dataset at the Data Acquisition stage)

(1 mark for an explanation of AI Project Cycle and ½ marks for each

of 5 phases or stages of the AI Project Cycle)

Q. 19 Steps of Data Acquisition:

Steps involved in Data Acquisition are as follows:
a. Obtain Data:
The first step is to obtain the data that we need from available
data sources.
b. Scrub Data: After obtaining data, the next immediate ting to
do is scrubbing data. This process is used to clean and fitter the
data
c. Explore Data: Once the data is ready for use, we have to
examine the data. To achieve that, we need to explore the data.
Unit 2 4
First of all, we need to inspect the data and its properties.
Different data types such as numerical data, categorical data,
ordinal and nominal data, etc., require different treatments.
d. Model Data: One of the first things we need to do in
modelling data is to reduce the dimensionality of the dataset.
All the features or values are not essential in predicting the
result. What you need to do is to select the relevant once that
contribute to the prediction of results.
e. Interpreting Data:
We are at the final and most crucial step, i.e., interpreting
 models and data. The predictive power of a model lies in its
ability to generalize. How we explain a model depends on its
ability to generalize unseen future data.

(3 marks for the beginning 3 steps of data acquisition with

explanation from 1 to 3 and ½ mark for each step of data
acquisition with explanation from 4 to 5).

Q. 20 NLP:
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch of Artificial
Intelligence that deals with the interaction between computers and
humans using the natural language. Natural language refers to the
language spoken and written by people and Natural Language
Processing (NLP) attempts to extract information from the spoken and
written words using algorithms. The objective of NLP is to read,
decipher, understand and make sense of human languages in a particular
manner.
The NLP is everywhere, while sending e-mail, text recommendation,
filtering unwanted e-mails, translating services on Facebook, fake news
detecting, IVR application, etc. Some of the applications of NLP are as
follows:
1. E-mails:
E-mail filters are one of the most basic and initial applications of
NLP, online. It started with filtering spam and uncovering Unit 6 4
certain words or phrases that signal a spam message.
2. Smart Assistants:
Smart assistants such as Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa
recognise patterns in speech, then infer meaning and provide a
helpful response.
3. Language Translations:
NLP is also used to translate one language into another. They
give the best results according to the syntax of that grammar.
4. Personal Voice Assistants:
These may be installed on your phone or you may take the
device for that purpose but the do e same task as they work
based on our voice instructions.

(2 mark for explanation of NLP with example and ½ mark for each
explanation of applications of NLP)
Q. 21 Different cases of confusion matrix:
The different cases of confusion matrix is as follows:
➔ True Positive: The number of records classified as true while they
were true.
Unit 7 4
➔ True Negative:-The number of records classified as false while they
are false
➔ False Positive: the number of record classified as true while they
were false.
 ➔ False Negative: The number of records classified as false while they
were true.
➔ The number of records classified as false while they were false.

(2 marks for explanation of different cases of confusion matrix and

½ mark for each formula/classification of confusion matrix)
