This course is intended to provide an
overview of the problems and methods studied in the field of artificial
intelligence. The focus of the course will be on the study of methods of
knowledge representation, data structures, and algorithms useful to the
development of intelligent programs. The course will also include discussion of
important applications of AI methodology.
Your scores on the projects and will
determine your grade in this course. There will be 4 projects using several AI
tools (including LISP) not all of which will require the development of
complete programs from scratch. You will be expected to do term project and to
present your term project orally. The smaller projects will count for 50% of
your grade, the oral presentation 10%, and the term project 40%. Late work will
be penalized, as will evidence of cheating in any form.
