Previous Year Question (PYQs)
3
Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Dendral is an expert system
Reason R: The rationality of an agent is not related to its reaction to the environment.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options
given below.
Solution
Dendral is an expert system. It was a groundbreaking AI project developed in the
1960s and 1970s aimed at automatically deducing the structure of organic molecules
based on their mass spectrometry data. So, assertion A is correct.
The second statement, however, is incorrect. The rationality of an agent in AI is very
much related to its reaction to its environment. Rational agents should be able to
make decisions based on their perceptions of the environment in order to achieve the
best possible outcome or, in the case of uncertainty, the best expected outcome.
Therefore, reason R is false
