CS 305 : Intro to Artificial Intelligence

Course Description

CS305 Introduction to Artificial Intelligence: The student will learn the terminology and methods used in a variety of artificial intelligence (AI) areas. These topics will be covered: history of artificial intelligence, search techniques, knowledge representation. In addition, one or more of these topics will be covered: expert systems, uncertainty, case-based reasoning, neural networks, vision, robotics. The student may use various AI tools, Lisp, and/or Prolog for AI projects. Prerequisite: CS352. 3:0:3
