The following are multiple choice questions (with answers) about knowledge and skills in advanced master-level STEM courses. Consider the following CF grammar \(G_1\) \( R_1: \text{S} \rightarrow \text{NP VP} \) \( R_2: \text{S} \rightarrow \text{NP VP PNP} \) \( R_3: \text{PNP} \rightarrow \text{Prep NP} \) \( R_4: \text{NP} \rightarrow \text{N} \) \( R_5: \text{NP} \rightarrow \text{Det N} \) \( R_6: \text{NP} \rightarrow \text{Det N PNP} \) \( R_7: \text{VP} \rightarrow \text{V} \) \( R_8: \text{VP} \rightarrow \text{V NP} \) (where \(\text{Det}\), \(\text{N}\), \(\text{Prep}\) and \(\text{V}\) are the only pre-terminals), complemented by an adequate lexicon \(L_1\).If the sequence \((p_1, p_2, \dots, p_8)\) represents a set of probabilistic coefficients for the syntactic rules in \(G_1\) (\(p_i\) being associated to \(R_i\)), indicate which of the following choices correspond to a valid probabilistic extension for the grammar \(G_1\). (Penalty for wrong ticks.) A. (1.00, 0.00, 1.00, 0.00, 1.00, 0.00, 1.00, 0.00) B. (0.55, 0.45, 0.60, 0.10, 0.15, 0.75, 0.50, 0.50) C. (0.35, 0.65, 1.00, 0.30, 0.25, 0.45, 0.25, 0.75) D. I cannot answer because it also depends on the probabilistic coefficients associated to the lexical rules. E. None of the other proposed answers. Answer:

The following are multiple choice questions (with answers) about knowledge and skills in advanced master-level STEM courses. Consider a binary classification problem with a linear classifier $f(\mathbf{x})$ given by $$ f(\mathbf{x})= \begin{cases}1, & \mathbf{w}^{\top} \mathbf{x} \geq 0 \\ -1, & \mathbf{w}^{\top} \mathbf{x}<0\end{cases} $$ where $\mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^{3}$. Suppose that the weights of the linear model are equal to $\mathbf{w}=(4,0,-3)$. For the next two questions, we would like to find a minimum-norm adversarial example. Specifically, we are interested in solving the following optimization problem, for a given $\mathbf{x}$ : $$ \min _{\boldsymbol{\delta} \in \mathbb{R}^{3}}\|\boldsymbol{\delta}\|_{2} \quad \text { subject to } \quad \mathbf{w}^{\top}(\mathbf{x}+\boldsymbol{\delta})=0 $$ This leads to the point $\mathbf{x}+\boldsymbol{\delta}$ that lies exactly at the decision boundary and the perturbation $\boldsymbol{\delta}$ is the smallest in terms of the $\ell_{2}$-norm. What is the optimum $\delta^{\star}$ that minimizes the objective in Eq. (OP) for the point $\mathbf{x}=$ $(-1,3,2) ?$ A. $(1,-1,0)$ B. $(0,-1,1)$ C. $(-2,0,0)$ D. $(1.2,0,1.6)$ E. Other F. $(0,2,0)$ G. $(-1.2,0,1.6)$ Answer:
