1Which MindSpore execution mode builds a static computational graph before running operators and is typically faster for production deployment?
A.PYNATIVE_MODE
B.GRAPH_MODE
C.EAGER_MODE
D.DYNAMIC_MODE
Explanation: MindSpore exposes two execution modes through ms.context.set_context(mode=...). GRAPH_MODE compiles the network into a static graph (MindIR) before execution, enabling whole-graph optimizations and faster runtime, which is preferred for production training and inference.
2A developer wants to switch a MindSpore script from static graph execution to step-by-step debugging with Python-style control flow. Which call best achieves this?
A.ms.set_seed(0)
B.ms.context.set_context(mode=ms.PYNATIVE_MODE)
C.ms.context.set_context(mode=ms.GRAPH_MODE)
D.ms.set_auto_parallel_context(parallel_mode='data_parallel')
Explanation: Setting mode=ms.PYNATIVE_MODE through ms.context.set_context switches MindSpore to imperative execution where each operator runs immediately, allowing standard Python debuggers and breakpoints to inspect intermediate tensors.
3Which MindSpore module provides automatic differentiation by transforming a forward function into its gradient function?
A.ms.ops.GradOperation
B.ms.dataset.GeneratorDataset
C.ms.train.Callback
D.ms.nn.Cell
Explanation: ms.ops.GradOperation (and the higher-level ms.grad / ms.value_and_grad helpers) implement MindSpore's source-to-source automatic differentiation by transforming the forward function into a function that returns gradients with respect to inputs or parameters.
4A MindSpore training job needs to shard the dataset across 8 Ascend devices so each device processes a different mini-batch of the same model. Which parallel strategy is appropriate?
A.Model parallel
B.Pipeline parallel
C.Data parallel
D.Hybrid expert parallel
Explanation: Data parallelism replicates the full model on each device and shards the input batch across devices, then synchronizes gradients via all-reduce. MindSpore enables it through ms.set_auto_parallel_context(parallel_mode=ms.ParallelMode.DATA_PARALLEL).
5Which MindSpore intermediate representation is used to serialize a computational graph for cross-platform deployment, including export to MindSpore Lite?
A.ONNX
B.TorchScript
C.MindIR
D.TensorFlow SavedModel
Explanation: MindIR is MindSpore's unified intermediate representation. Models exported with ms.export(net, inputs, file_format='MINDIR') produce a .mindir file that can be loaded by MindSpore on cloud, edge (MindSpore Lite), and device targets.
6Which MindSpore data API loads a custom Python iterator (for example, a list of NumPy arrays) into the data pipeline?
A.ms.dataset.MindDataset
B.ms.dataset.GeneratorDataset
C.ms.dataset.ImageFolderDataset
D.ms.dataset.TFRecordDataset
Explanation: GeneratorDataset takes a user-defined Python generator or callable that yields samples and exposes them as a MindSpore dataset, which is the standard way to integrate arbitrary Python data sources.
7Which MindSpore data pipeline operation should be applied first when chaining map, batch, repeat, and shuffle to obtain epoch-level randomization without leaking samples between epochs?
A.batch before shuffle
B.shuffle before repeat
C.repeat before shuffle
D.map after batch
Explanation: Calling shuffle before repeat reshuffles the dataset within each epoch, producing different orders per epoch without mixing samples across epoch boundaries. Putting repeat first would tile the same fixed order.
8MindSpore Lite targets which deployment scenario?
A.Multi-node Ascend 910 cluster training
B.Edge and device-side inference on smartphones, IoT, and embedded boards
C.Distributed hyperparameter tuning on Huawei Cloud
D.Federated reinforcement learning servers
Explanation: MindSpore Lite is the lightweight runtime for on-device and edge inference, supporting Android, iOS, HarmonyOS, and embedded Linux devices with optimized operators for mobile NPUs, CPUs, and GPUs.
9In MindSpore, which class should a user subclass to define a custom neural network layer with trainable parameters?
A.ms.Tensor
B.ms.nn.Cell
C.ms.dataset.Dataset
D.ms.train.Model
Explanation: ms.nn.Cell is the base class for all MindSpore neural network components. Users override __init__ to register sub-cells and parameters and override construct to define the forward computation.
10Which MindSpore high-level API trains a model with a single fit call given a network, loss function, optimizer, and dataset?
A.ms.train.Model
B.ms.ops.GradOperation
C.ms.context
D.ms.numpy
Explanation: ms.train.Model wraps a network, loss function, and optimizer and exposes train, eval, and predict methods that hide the manual training loop, similar to Keras Model.
