Q-1 Explain Neural networks in detail.

Ans-1 The concept of artificial neural network is analogous with human brain which contains
millions of neurons. As the person grows up, the learning is retained by the brain in the form
of intelligence, skills, information and perspectives.
An Artificial Neural Network has a layered arrangement of nodes. A node is an artificial
neuron.
In deep learning model, an ANN is in the form of layers of hundreds or thousands of nodes
(neurons). The bottom or front layer is called the input layer, top most or back is output layer
and in between these two, are multiple layers called hidden layers.
So, a deep learning ANN can be visualised as a stack of layered nodes.
Q-2 Write any three applications of Neural networks.
Ans-2 1. Facial recognition
2. Weather forecasting
3. Music composition
Q-4 Explain different layers of ANN.
Ans-4 The different layers of ANN are:

o Input layer: The input layer accepts all the inputs that are provided by the
programmer.
o Hidden layer: In between the input and output layer, there is a set of hidden
layers on which computations are performed that further results in the output.
o Output layer: After the input layer undergoes a series of transformations while
passing through the hidden layer, it results in output that is delivered by the
output layer.

Q-3 Explain different types of nodes.

Ans-3

Referring to the given structure of an ANN, the nodes in the input layer are called input
nodes, nodes of output layer are called output nodes and those of hidden layers are called
hidden nodes. All the processing happens only in hidden nodes.
Q-5 Name the three inputs given to ANN node.
Ans-5 An ANN node takes in as input:
1. Data
2. Weight or bias
3. Activation function
Q-6 What is Perceptron?

Ans-6 A perceptron can be defined as a neural network with a single layer that classifies the
linear data.

Q-7 Define Clustering? Give an example.

Ans-7 Clustering or cluster analysis is a machine learning technique, which groups the
unlabelled dataset. In simple words, the aim of the clustering process is to segregate
groups with similar traits and assign them into clusters.
It does it by finding some similar patterns in the unlabelled dataset such as shape,
size, colour, behaviour, etc., and divides them as per the presence and absence of
those similar patterns. It is an unsupervised learning method, hence no supervision
is provided to the algorithm, and it deals with the unlabelled dataset.
