Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

Description

Introduction to basic methods of Artificial Intelligence (AI) such as problem solving, searching techniques, machine learning and knowledge representation. Through discussions, small projects, and examples, students learn what AI is, some of the major developments in the field, promising directions, and the techniques for making computers exhibit intelligent behavior. Students make use of available tools and explore some areas of applications.
