The syllabus states:

“When testing probabilistic and non-deterministic systems, the same input may produce different outputs. Tests need to be run several times to produce statistically valid test results, ensuring that an appropriate number of answers are accurate.”

(Reference: ISTQB CT-AI Syllabus v1.0, Section 8.4, page 58 of 99)

 Testing Autonomy:Testing for human handover when it should not be relinquishing control is the least appropriate because it contradicts the very definition of autonomous systems. The other tests are relevant to ensuring smooth operation and transitions between human and AI control.

A. Add 10% of the rows randomly and create another model and compare the R-Square scores of both the models.

Adding more data to the training set can affect the R-Square score, but it does not directly verify the correctness of the implementation.

B. Train various models by changing the order of input features and verify that the R-Square score of these models vary significantly.

Changing the order of input features should not significantly affect the R-Square score if the implementation is correct, but this approach is more about testing model robustness rather than correctness of the implementation.

C. Compare the R-Square score of the model obtained using two different implementations that utilize two different programming languages while using the same algorithm and the same training and testing data.

This approach directly compares the performance of two implementations of the same algorithm. If both implementations produce similar R-Square scores on the same training and testing data, it suggests that the new implementation "X" is correct.

D. Drop 10% of the rows randomly and create another model and compare the R-Square scores of both the models.

Dropping data can lead to variations in the R-Square score but does not directly verify the correctness of the implementation.

Therefore, optionCis the most appropriate strategy because it directly compares the performance of the new implementation "X" with another implementation using the same algorithm and datasets, which helps in verifying the correctness of the implementation​​.

When written requirements are given in text documents, the best way to generate test cases is by using Natural Language Processing (NLP). Here's why:

Natural Language Processing (NLP): NLP can analyze and understand human language. It can be used to process textual requirements to extract relevant information and generate test cases. This method is efficient in handling large volumes of textual data and identifying key elements necessary for testing.

Why Not Other Options:

Analyzing source code for generating test cases: This is more suitable for white-box testing where the code is available, but it doesn't apply to text-based requirements.

Machine learning on logs of execution: This approach is used for dynamic analysis based on system behavior during execution rather than static textual requirements.

GUI analysis by computer vision: This is used for testing graphical user interfaces and is not applicable to text-based requirements.

According to the syllabus, pre-trained models often inherit biases and limitations from the data and processes used in their original training, which may not align with the new use case. Specifically, the syllabus states:

"When using a pre-trained model, the training data and process cannot be fully controlled or known by the user of the model. As a result, the model can inherit biases or inaccuracies that were part of its original development and training process."

(Reference: ISTQB CT-AI Syllabus v1.0, Section 1.8.3)

 Coverage for Neuron Activation Values:Sign change coverage is used to ensure that test cases cause each neuron to achieve both positive and negative activation values. This type of coverage ensures that the neurons are thoroughly tested under different activation states.

 Reference:ISTQB_CT-AI_Syllabus_v1.0, Section 6.2 Coverage Measures for Neural Networks, which details different types of coverage measures, including sign change coverage​​.

To calculate the accuracy, recall, and specificity from the confusion matrix provided, we use the following formulas:

Confusion Matrix:

Actually Rotten: 45 (True Positive), 8 (False Positive)

Actually Fresh: 5 (False Negative), 42 (True Negative)

Accuracy:

Accuracy is the proportion of true results (both true positives and true negatives) in the total population.

Formula: Accuracy=TP+TNTP+TN+FP+FN\text{Accuracy} = \frac{TP + TN}{TP + TN + FP + FN}Accuracy=TP+TN+FP+FNTP+TN​

Calculation: Accuracy=45+4245+42+8+5=87100=0.87\text{Accuracy} = \frac{45 + 42}{45 + 42 + 8 + 5} = \frac{87}{100} = 0.87Accuracy=45+42+8+545+42​=10087​=0.87

Recall (Sensitivity):

Recall is the proportion of true positive results in the total actual positives.

Formula: Recall=TPTP+FN\text{Recall} = \frac{TP}{TP + FN}Recall=TP+FNTP​

Calculation: Recall=4545+5=4550=0.9\text{Recall} = \frac{45}{45 + 5} = \frac{45}{50} = 0.9Recall=45+545​=5045​=0.9

Specificity:

Specificity is the proportion of true negative results in the total actual negatives.

Formula: Specificity=TNTN+FP\text{Specificity} = \frac{TN}{TN + FP}Specificity=TN+FPTN​

Calculation: Specificity=4242+8=4250=0.84\text{Specificity} = \frac{42}{42 + 8} = \frac{42}{50} = 0.84Specificity=42+842​=5042​=0.84

Therefore, the correct combinations of accuracy, recall, and specificity are 0.87, 0.9, and 0.84 respectively.
