Artificial Intelligence (AI) deals with how to build intelligent systems. In this course, we examine some of the fundamental concepts in AI:

• Introduction to AI - (R&N) Chapter 1
• Intelligent Agents - (R&N) Chapter 2
• Logical Representations, First-Order Logic Syntax and Semantics - (R&N) Chapter 8
• Reasoning, Inference in First-Order Logic - (R&N) Chapter 9
• Uninformed and Heuristic (Informed) Search - (R&N) Chapter 3
• Game/Adversarial Search - (R&N) Chapter 5
• Constraint Satisfaction and Backtracking Search - (R&N) Chapter 6
• Uncertain Reasoning - (R&N) Chapter 13 & 14
• Logic Programming in Prolog - (C&M) Chapter 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10
• Functional Programming and Lisp (Briefly)

• Mondays and Wednesdays, 4:00pm - 5:30pm, HNE B15
