The concept of 'technological sovereignty' emphasizes reducing dependence on foreign technology through domestic innovation.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Technological sovereignty promotes domestic R&D, manufacturing, standards to reduce strategic dependencies. Critical for India's tech policy and security.
Which DeFi mechanism allows users to earn yield by providing liquidity to trading pairs?
- Yield Farming
- Liquidity Mining
- Both A and B
- Neither
Answer: Both A and B
Yield farming/liquidity mining rewards users with tokens for providing liquidity to DEX pools. Critical DeFi incentive mechanism with impermanent loss risks.
The Indian authority that monitors suspicious cryptocurrency transactions for money laundering is ________.
Answer: FIU-IND
Financial Intelligence Unit-India receives, analyzes, disseminates financial intelligence including crypto transactions. VASPs must register and report.
Which brain-inspired feature do neuromorphic chips use for energy-efficient processing?
- Spiking Neurons
- Event-Driven Computation
- Both A and B
- Neither
Answer: Both A and B
Neuromorphic chips use spiking neurons that fire only when needed, and event-driven computation that processes only changes. Critical for edge AI efficiency.
The technology that uses proteins for computational tasks is called ________ Computing.
Answer: Protein / Molecular
Protein computing uses biomolecular interactions for parallel computation. Research stage with potential for ultra-low power, massive parallelism.
The technique that enables verification of identity without revealing underlying attributes is called Zero-________ Proofs.
Answer: Knowledge
Zero-Knowledge Proofs enable proving statements without revealing underlying data. Critical for privacy-preserving authentication and selective disclosure.
The technique that adds noise to model gradients during training to prevent privacy leaks is called ________ SGD.
Answer: Differential Privacy / DP
DP-SGD adds calibrated noise to gradients during training, providing differential privacy guarantees. Critical for privacy-preserving ML training.
Membership inference attacks determine whether specific individuals were in a model's training data.
- True
- False
Answer: True
Membership inference exploits model confidence scores to infer training data membership. Mitigation: differential privacy, regularization, output perturbation.
Which technique detects when ML model performance degrades due to changing data distributions?
- Data Drift Detection
- Concept Drift Detection
- Both A and B
- Neither
Answer: Both A and B
Data drift: input feature distribution changes; concept drift: relationship between features and target changes. Monitoring both enables timely model retraining.
The pattern that enables stateless microservices to scale independently is called ________ Scaling.
Answer: Horizontal
Horizontal scaling adds more instances of stateless services to handle increased load. Contrasts with vertical scaling (upgrading instance size).
