Course This course serves as an introduction to the techniques and applications of artificial intelligence (AI) including a treatment of intelligent
Description agents, search techniques, logical agents, knowledge representation and reasoning formalisms, learning paradigms and some of machine
learning techniques like neural networks, decision trees etc.
On completion of this module, students should be able to: Demonstrate an understanding of the fundamental ideas of problem solving in AI
, Demonstrate an understanding of the fundamental ideas of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning Demonstrate an understanding of
the principles of a number of different approaches to machine learning, Demonstrate the ability to apply AI and Computational Intelligence
Objectives techniques to a variety of research and application projects.
