Decision Making Practice Sheet
Introduction
Decision making is an important part of everyday life. It is also an important part of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI is a type of computer science that enables computers to learn and make decisions without being explicitly programmed.
In this practice sheet, you will learn about decision making and how it works in AI. You will also get to practice your decision making skills with some practice problems. Let's get started!
What is Decision Making?
Decision making is the process of making choices based on available information. It involves gathering and evaluating information, considering alternatives, and making the best possible decision.
In AI, decision making is used to create automated systems that can make decisions without human intervention. These systems use algorithms to analyze data and make decisions based on the results.
Types of Decision Making
There are several types of decision making. Some of the most common are:
-
Deterministic Decision Making: This type of decision making involves making decisions based on predetermined rules or conditions.
-
Probabilistic Decision Making: This type of decision making involves making decisions based on probabilities.
-
Heuristic Decision Making: This type of decision making involves making decisions based on experience and knowledge.
