NOTES:
This is an introduction to AI class. Artificial Intelligence is
a diverse area whose goal is to solve problems that are algorithmically
not solvable or which belong to the class NP. In this class, breadth
will be emphasized instead on depth. Students will be exposed to
diverse areas of AI, among them graph searching heuristics, foundations
of logic programming, uncertainty in knowledge bases, introduction to
machine learning, evolutionary computation, natural language, vision
and robotics. SCHEME, a version of the language LISP, will be introduced
and used for implementation of the various heuristics.
