Answer : A, D

Feedforward neural networks (FNNs) are networks where information moves in only one direction---forward---from the input nodes through hidden layers to the output nodes. Both fully-connected neural networks (where each neuron in one layer connects to every neuron in the next) and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) (which have a specific architecture for image data) are examples of feedforward networks.

However, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and Boltzmann machines are not feedforward networks. RNNs include loops where information can be fed back into previous layers, and Boltzmann machines involve undirected connections between units, making them a form of a stochastic network rather than a feedforward structure.

Answer : D

This statement is false because not all feedforward neural networks follow this architecture. While fully-connected layers do have this type of connectivity (where each neuron is connected to all neurons in the previous layer), feedforward networks can include layers like convolutional layers, where not every neuron is connected to all previous neurons. Convolutional layers, common in convolutional neural networks (CNNs), only connect to a local region of the input, preserving spatial information.

Answer : C, D

Both Sigmoid and Tanh activation functions can cause the vanishing gradient problem. This issue occurs because these functions squash their inputs into a very small range, leading to very small gradients during backpropagation, which slows down learning. In deep neural networks, this can prevent the weights from updating effectively, causing the training process to stall.

Sigmoid: Outputs values between 0 and 1. For large positive or negative inputs, the gradient becomes very small.

Tanh: Outputs values between -1 and 1. While it has a broader range than Sigmoid, it still suffers from vanishing gradients for larger input values.

ReLU, on the other hand, does not suffer from the vanishing gradient problem since it outputs the input directly if positive, allowing gradients to pass through. However, Softplus is also less prone to this problem compared to Sigmoid and Tanh.

Contrary to the statement, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) can indeed be used to process text data. While CNNs are most famously used for image processing, they can also be adapted for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. In text data, CNNs can operate on word embeddings or character-level data to capture local patterns (e.g., sequences of words or characters). CNNs are used in applications such as text classification, sentiment analysis, and language modeling.

The key to CNN's application in text processing is that the convolutional layers can detect patterns in sequences, much like they detect spatial features in images. This versatility is covered in Huawei's HCIA AI platform when discussing CNN's applications beyond image data.

Answer : A

Nesterov Accelerated Gradient (NAG) is indeed a variant of the momentum optimizer. In the traditional momentum method, the gradient is used to adjust the direction based on the current momentum. Nesterov, on the other hand, anticipates the change in the momentum by calculating the gradient at a slightly altered position. This small adjustment leads to better convergence and more efficient optimization, especially in non-convex problems.

Momentum methods and their variants like Nesterov are commonly discussed in the optimization strategies for neural networks, including frameworks such as TensorFlow, which is covered in Huawei's HCIA AI courses.

Answer : A, B, D

The gradient descent method is a core optimization technique in machine learning, particularly for neural networks and deep learning models. The common gradient descent methods include:

Batch Gradient Descent (BGD): Updates the model parameters after computing the gradients from the entire dataset.

Mini-batch Gradient Descent (MBGD): Updates the model parameters using a small batch of data, combining the benefits of both batch and stochastic gradient descent.

Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD): Updates the model parameters for each individual data point, leading to faster but noisier updates.

Multi-dimensional gradient descent is not a recognized method in AI or machine learning.

Answer : A

AI is not limited to just computer vision and speech processing. In addition to these fields, AI encompasses other important areas such as natural language processing (NLP), robotics, smart finance, autonomous driving, and more. Natural language processing focuses on understanding and generating human language, while other fields apply AI to various industries and applications such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. AI is a broad field with numerous application areas.
