News:

Nov. 28, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solution to knowledge representation with Neural Networks.
Nov. 26, 2023:     The two input files for the Department example instances you will have to send me the results from your system for are here and here.
Set all the required parameters to 1 to produce the results.
Nov. 15, 2023:     Here are the times available for the teams to do the demos of their systems to me (in the undergraduate lab). Please send me an email indicating at least 3 possible times (and the order of your preference)!

Dec. 1: 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00
Nov. 15, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solution to knowledge representation with Semantic Networks.
Nov. 7, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solution to knowledge representation with frames (XML).
Nov. 2, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solutions to knowledge representation with rules.
Oct. 30, 2023:     A description of how an input file for your system looks like, what other input your system has to be able to accept and how the output of the system has to look like can be found here.
Oct. 25, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solutions to knowledge representation with logic.
Oct. 10, 2023:     Here are the slides with the solutions to or-tree-based search.
Oct. 9, 2023:     Here are the times available for the teams to meet with me (in front of my office) before handing in your reports. Please send me an email indicating at least 3 possible times (and the order of your preference)! It would be nice, if the email also provides a list of the members of the team.

Description of the course

According to Calendar:
An examination of the objectives, key techniques and achievements of work on Artificial Intelligence in Computer Science.

According to me:
An overview on the different fields of AI and its history, an introduction to knowledge representation and knowledge processing, especially search as the key problem solving technique and the different search paradigms, and an overview (with some case studies) of the areas planing, learning and cooperation (this only if time permits).

Prerequisite:
One of Computer Science 313 or 351 and one of PHIL 279 or 377
Note that prior or concurrent completion of Computer Science 349 or 449 is strongly recommended as preparation for this course.

Labs/Tutorials

The main goals of the tutorials will be to help you in more deeply understanding the concepts presented in the lectures (providing more examples) and with your assignment.
