Prerequisites: grade of at least "C" in CSC 330. The
course is designed for junior-senior level undergraduate computer science
majors or minors, although graduate students that meet the prerequisites may
enroll in the course. Skills developed from previous courses in formal
logic and algorithms will be useful. CSC339 (which covers Prolog) would
be helpful but is not required.
Description: an overview of the theoretical foundations and main
areas in Artificial Intelligence
(AI) today. In addition the course will provide programming experience in
AI problems. Students will be given several short programming assignments
using Prolog and a larger project using Prolog or possibly other AI
tools. Students will be expected to explain the AI methods and algorithms
used in their project and give a demonstration of the project. In
addition, graduate students are expected to write a report on an application of
AI based on sources in the research literature and to make a presentation to the
class on their report. Also, graduate students' examinations may contain
different questions.
Required Textbook:Computational
