7. If some of output patterns in pattern association problem are identical then problem shifts to?
a) pattern storage problem
b) pattern classification problem
c) pattern mapping problem
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Because then number of distinct output can be viewed as class labels.
8. The network for pattern mapping is expected to perform?
a) pattern storage
b) pattern classification
c) genaralization
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: The network for pattern mapping is expected to perform genaralization.

b) interpolative
c) can be either accretive or interpolative
d) none of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: When a noisy pattern is given , network retrieves a noisy pattern.
