This set of Neural Networks Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Activation Models″.
1. Activation value is associated with?
a) potential at synapses
b) cell membrane potential
c) all of the mentioned
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Cell membrane potential determines the activation value in neural nets.
2. In activation dynamics is output function bounded?
a) yes
b) no
View Answer
Explanation: It is the nature of output function in activation dynamics.
3. What’s the actual reason behind the boundedness of the output function in activation dynamics?
a) limited neural fluid
b) limited fan in capacity of inputs
c) both limited neural fluid & fan in capacity
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: It is due to the limited current carrying capacity of cell membrane.
4. What is noise saturation dilemma?
a) at saturation state neuron will stop working, while biologically it’s not feasible
b) how can a neuron with limited operating range be made sensitive to nearly unlimited range of inputs
c) can be either way
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Threshold value setting has to be adjusted properly.
5. Broadly how many kinds of stability can be defined in neural networks?
a) 1
b) 3
c) 2
d) 4
View Answer
Explanation: There exist broadly structural & global stability in neural.
6. What is structural stability?
a) when both synaptic & activation dynamics are simultaneously used & are in equilibrium
b) when only synaptic dynamics in equilibrium
c) when only synaptic dynamics in equilibrium
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Refers to state equilibrium situation where small perturbations brings network back to equilibrium.
7. What is global stability?
a) when both synaptic & activation dynamics are simultaneously used & are in equilibrium
b) when only synaptic & activation dynamics are used
c) when only synaptic dynamics in equilibrium
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Global stability means neuron as a whole is stable.
8. Which models belongs to main subcategory of activation models?
a) additive & subtractive activation models
b) additive & shunting activation models
c) subtractive & shunting activation models
d) all of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Additive & shunting activation models are the most basic category of activation models.
9.What is the assumption of perkels model, if f(x) is the output function in additive activation model?
a) f(x)=x
b) f(x)=x2
c) f(x)=x3
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Perkels model assumes output function to be linear.
10. Who proposed the shunting activation model?
a) rosenblatt
b) hopfield
c) perkel
d) grossberg
View Answer
Explanation: Grossberg proposed the model in 1982.
11. What was the goal of shunting activation model?
a) to make system dynamic
b) to keep operating range of activation value to a specified range
c) to make system static
d) can be either for dynamic or static, depending on inputs
View Answer
Explanation: Stabilizing & bounding the unbounded range of activation value was the primary goal of this model.
