Question 2a – Minimax Search Total 10 marks
Refer to Figure: 3 to answer this question.
Figure: 3
Apply the minimax algorithm to the game tree in Figure: 3 above, where it is the
MAXIMIZER’s turn to play. The values estimated by the evaluation function are indicated at
the leaf nodes. Assume that the search always visits children left-to-right.
Compute the backed-up values computed by the minimax algorithm. Show your answer by
writing values at the appropriate nodes in the above tree. [7m]
a. Indicate the proper move of the maximizer by marking the line with bold indicator
( ) to the root’s outgoing edges. [3m]

Question 2b – Alpha-Beta Pruning Total 10 marks
Refer to Figure 3 above, answer the following questions
a. Using alpha-beta pruning (and standard left-to-right evaluation of nodes), how many of the
leaves get evaluated? [4m]
b. Indicate all parts of the tree that are cut off. [3m]
c. if the standard right-to-left evaluation of nodes is applied to the search tree in Figure 3
above:
i. are the minimax value computed at the root will be changed. (just write down yes or
no) [1.5m]
ii. are the number of nodes pruned will be changed. (just write down yes or no)[1.5m]

Question 3 (a) – 15 marks
A production system maintains a set of rules about the characteristics of fruits as follows:
Rule 1: IF Shape = long ANDColour = green OR yellow
THEN Fruit = banana
Rule 2: IF Shape = round OR oblong ANDDiameter > 4 inches
THEN Fruitclass = vine
Rule 3: IF Shape = round ANDDiameter < 4 inches
THEN Fruitclass = tree
Rule 4: IF Seedcount = 1THEN Seedclass = stonefruit
Rule 5: IF Seedcount > 1THEN Seedclass = multiple
Rule 6: IF Fruitclass = vine ANDColour = green
THEN Fruit = watermelon
Rule 7: IF Fruitclass = vine ANDSurface = smooth ANDColour = yellow
THEN Fruit = honeydew
Rule 8: IF Fruitclass = vine ANDSurface = rough ANDColour = tan
THEN Fruit = cantaloupe
Rule 9: IF Fruitclass = tree ANDColour = orange ANDSeedclass = stonefruit
THEN Fruit = apricot
Rule 10: IF Fruitclass = tree ANDColour = orange ANDSeedclass = multiple
THEN Fruit = orange
Rule 11: IF Fruitclass = tree ANDColour = red ANDSeedclass = stonefruit
THEN Fruit = cherry

Question 4 (a) – 10 marks
Develop a knowledge representation by drawing a SEMANTIC NETWORK to model the
classification of musical instruments as described below.
Musical Instruments are classified according to five major categories namely
Idiophones, Membranophones, Aerophones, Chordophones and Electrophones.
Idiophones are played by striking, shaking, plucking, or rubbing. Examples of
struck idiophones are bells and cymbals. Shaken Idiophones are rattles.
Examples of plucked idiophones are harps.
Membranophones are played by striking or rubbing. Examples are kettledrums
and snare drums. They are played by striking on them. Membranophones are
made from stretched skin or membrane.
Aerophones are played by blowing or breathing. Trumpets and Horns players
must blow or compress their lips to set the air into motion. For flutes, the
player’s breath is directed against the sharp edge of a hole to set the air into
motion.
Chordophones may be plucked or bowed. Examples are Harps.
Electrophones are played using electronic circuits. Examples are Electric guitar.

Question 4 (b) – 10 marks
Model your knowledge by assembling the partial description given about Multiple
Intelligences below into a STRUCTURED FRAME-BASED representation.
Gardner (1983) introduced the Theory of Multiple Intelligences which meets
with the criteria for a behavior to be intelligent. He believes that there are 8
types of intelligences: Spatial, Linguistic, Logical-mathematical, Bodily-kinesthetic,
Musical, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal and Naturalistic.
Spatial intelligence deals with spatial judgment, and ability to visualize with
the mind’s eye. Potential careers for them are Architect, Artist, and Engineer.
Linguistic intelligence deals with spoken or written words. Potential careers for
them are Writer, Lawyer and Teacher.
Logical-mathematical intelligence deals with logic, abstractions, reasoning and
numbers. Potential careers for them are Scientist, Mathematician, Computer
programmer, and Engineer.
Intrapersonal intelligence deals with introspective and self-reflective capacities.
Potential careers for them are Philosopher, Writer, Theorist and Scientist.
Naturalistic intelligence deals with the ability to recognize and categorize
plants, animals and other objects in nature. Potential careers for them are
Farmers, Botanists and Chef.
Note: The JOB frame will only cater for job titles that are in italics i.e. Engineer, Writer, Scientist and Chef.
