Explanation :

• The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is considering permitting mutual funds (MFs) to
start a new type of actively managed commodity fund that invests solely in exchange-traded
commodity derivatives (ETCDs).

About exchange-traded commodity derivatives (ETCDs) :

• In 2019, SEBI allowed mutual funds to invest in ETCDs, which are standardised agreements
exchanged on regulated exchanges.
• The exposure to ETCDs in multi-asset schemes is limited to 30% of the net asset value, whereas
other hybrid schemes have a 10% maximum.
• MF investment in ETCDs is estimated to be less than Rs.10,000 crore, with investments currently
permissible through gold and silver ETFs backed by physical commodities.
• Certain commodities have little liquidity, which is a significant challenge. More liquid commodities
include gold, silver, castor oil, aluminum, copper, and zinc.
• Current regulations compel mutual funds to dispose of the underlying goods by the contract series'
next expiry date, or within 30 days of holding them.

Explanation :

• The Royal Swedish Academy of Science in Stockholm, Sweden, has picked John J. Hopfield and
Geoffrey E. Hinton for the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2024.

• American John Hopfield and British-Canadian Geoffrey Hinton were chosen for their pioneering
contributions to the creation of artificial intelligence (AI).

• Hopfield, a professor at Princeton University in the United States, is credited with creating the
Hopfield network, a sort of recurrent neural network.

• Its neurons learn and process information using Hebbian learning, which states that if one neuron
repeatedly activates another, the connection between the two strengthens. The rules of a Hopfield
network are based on the physics of a bunch of atoms, each with its own tiny magnetic field.

• Hinton, a professor at the University of Toronto, and his colleagues developed another network
known as the Boltzmann machine to do cognitive tasks, drawing on the concepts of the Hopfield
network and others.

• In the 2000s, he achieved a significant breakthrough by creating a learning method for a modified
ANN known as a restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM).

• Both winners will share the prize money of 11 million Swedish kroner, which will be awarded on
December 10, 2024, in Stockholm.

• Machine learning is a branch of computer science that combines data and algorithms to enable
artificial intelligence to learn in the same way that people do and continuously improve its accuracy.

• Artificial intelligence (AI) is a technology that allows computers and machines to mimic human
learning, comprehension, problem solving, decision-making, creativity, and autonomy.

• The first Indian who won the Nobel Prize in Physics was Sir Chandrashekhara Venkata Raman (C.V.
Raman) in 1930.

दिया?

(a) 2026
(b) 2027

Answer : Option C

Explanation :

normal rice in a 1:100 ratio (1 kg FRK to 100 kg custom milled rice).

• Fortified rice has same aroma, taste, and texture as traditional rice. This procedure occurs during
rice milling.

• Rice Fortification is a 2 step process, first is Production of Fortified Rice Kernels (FRK) and second
is Blending of rice with FRK.

• According to FSSAI norms, 1 kg of fortified rice will contain the following: iron (28 mg-42.5 mg), folic
acid (75-125 microgram), and vitamin B-12 (0.75-1.25 microgram).

• Micronutrients can be added to rice using several technologies, including coating, dusting, and
'extrusion'.
https://examgenius.in/

• Micronutrient technology produces fortified rice kernels (FRKs) from a mixture using a 'extruder'
machine. It is thought to be the best technology for India.
