CS306- INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS Part – A 1. There are well-known classes of problems that are intractably difficult for computers‚ and other classes that are provably undecidable. Does this mean AI is impossible? (2) No‚ it means that AI systems should avoid trying to solve intractable problems. Usually this means they can only approximate optimal behavior. Notice that even humans do not solve NP- complete problems. Sometimes they are good at solving specific instances with a lot of structure

At the end of the six weeks‚ or sooner or later depending on the baby (this is an example of rate of development)‚ the baby’s hands will automatically grab whatever it is place in its hand‚ due to the palmer reflex. Once the simple reflexes have been developed the baby will go into another stage of development where it develops primary circular reactions‚ and after once it has accomplished it over a certain period‚ it will move on to yet another stage of development

The basic properties of a reflex are defined as involuntary‚ stereotypes‚ and graded. A reflex is an involuntary and stereotyped movement that elicit by a stimulus. When the response of a reflex is graded‚ the strength stimulation is proportional to the stimulus strength. Most reflexes are unlearned; however‚ some reflexes can be learned as a result of practice and learning. The five components of a reflex arc are receptor‚ integrator‚ afferent nerve fiber‚ efferent nerve fiber‚ and effector. These
