Assignment 4 Solution

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS

In the following multiple-choice questions, select the best answer.

1. Least Squares Estimation minimizes:

a. summation of squares of errors

b. summation of errors

c. summation of absolute values of errors

d. All

2. Parameter Estimation problem is about:

a. Identifying Input Parameters

b. Identifying Output Parameters

c. Identifying Model Parameters

d. All

4. Aerodynamic Parameter Estimation is achieved using:

a. Wind Tunnel Method

b. Flight Test Method

c. Using Geometrical detail of Aircraft

d. All

5. Neural Networks are complex ______________ with many parameters.

a) Linear Functions

b) Nonlinear Functions

c) Discrete Functions

d) Exponential Functions

11. A 4-input neuron has weights 1, 2, 3 and 4. The transfer function is linear with the constant of proportionality
being equal to 2. The inputs are 4, 10, 5 and 20 respectively. The output will be:

a) 238

b) 76

c) 119

d) 123

Explanation: The output is found by multiplying the weights with their respective inputs, summing the
results and multiplying with the transfer function. Therefore:
Output = 2 * (1*4 + 2*10 + 3*5 + 4*20) = 238.

6. In the case of an algebraic model for a straight line, if a value for the x variable is specified, then

a. the exact value of the response variable can be computed

b. the computed response to the independent value will always give a minimal residual

c. the computed value of y will always be the best estimate of the mean response

d. none of these alternatives is correct.
