Introduction to Artificial Intelligence - Undergraduate 2014/2015 session
|
Aims
|
The aims of this course is to provide an overview and basic introduction to concepts and methods in Artificial Intelligence (AI), including notions of rational behavior and intellıgent agents. Major sub-areas of Artificial Intelligence will be covered. The emphasis will be on understanding the fundamental concepts, as well as being able to practically apply the corresponding approaches in solving practical problems and developing useful software applications, including ability to carry out independent research in the Field of AI. While making reference to program illustrations in traditional languages such as C and Java The use of Prolog as a language for modeling problems and implementing algorithms in AI. will be emphasized.
