    Course Objectives Artificial Intelligence (AI) is devoted to the computational study of intelligent behavior. The element that the fields of AI have in common is the creation of agents/machines that can "think". This course will cover a broad technical introduction to the techniques that enable agents/computers to behave intelligently: problem solving, representing knowledge, reasoning, learning, perceiving, and interpreting. The bulk of this course reflects this diversity. We will examine the fundamental questions and issues of AI and will explore the essential techniques. In the special topics, several AI applications will be presented.
    Learning Outcomes

    The students who succeeded in this course;

    • will be able to discuss a broad range of issues in the field of AI.
    • will be able to use and discuss the basic techniques of the field.
    • will be able to evaluate potential applications of AI technology.
    • will be able to identify problems that are amenable to solution by AI methods, and which AI methods may be suited to solving a given problem.
    • will be able to implement basic AI algorithms (e.g., standard search algorithms).
