________ are intelligent techniques that parallel some aspects of the processing patterns of the biological brain. A) Neural networks B) Genetic algorithms C) CBR systems D) Fuzzy logic systems E) Intelligent agents

Genetic algorithms: A) represent knowledge as groups of characteristics. B) are software programs that work in the background to carry out specific, repetitive tasks. C) develop solutions to particular problems using techniques such as mutation, crossover, and selection. D) "learn" patterns from large quantities of data by sifting through data. E) have a large number of sensing and processing nodes that continuously interact with each other.

To automate routine tasks to help firms search for and filter information for use in electronic commerce and supply chain management, a firm would most likely use: A) CAD systems. B) genetic algorithms. C) fuzzy logic systems. D) intelligent agents. E) neural networks.

________ intelligence technology consists of computer-based systems that attempt to emulate human behavior and thought patterns. A) Neural B) Genetic C) Fuzzy D) Artificial E) Learning

Google's ability to recognize the meaning and intent behind user queries rather than merely matching keywords is based on which of the following? A) Expert systems B) Machine learning C) DSS D) Neural networks E) Parameterized reports

Expert systems capture the knowledge of skilled employees in the form of a set of rules in a software system that can be used by others in the organization.

In neural networks, humans train the network by feeding it a set of known outputs.

Watson is being used to diagnose diseases.

Robotics is a type of intelligent technique.

Unlike genetic algorithms, neural networks are not suited to finding patterns and relationships in massive amounts of data.
