Introduction

Computer / software engineers are involved in effective and efficient building of knowledge-based agent systems, including software for intelligent embedded systems and intelligent information systems. This course teaches general awareness of theory, knowledge, and practice in all phases of the development of knowledge-based systems and knowledge representation techniques, which are necessary for those who want to enter the field of artificial intelligence. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to artificial intelligence, emphasizing fundamental topics.

This course is part of:

At the end of the course, learners  are able to:

1. Explain what Artificial Intelligence is about and appreciate its relevance to Computer Science and importance for IT and society;

2. Describe the human cognitive organisation in problem solving and appreciate the ethics involved in the application of AI techniques and;

3. Formulate a problem, evaluate its complexity and apply the appropriate state space search algorithms to solve it.

1. Foundations of AI, the history of AI, and recent progress
2. Agent paradigm, agent tasks and environments
3. Problem formulation, state space representation
4. Uninformed search (breadth-first, depth-first, IDA, uniform-cost)
5. Informed search (best-first, A*), heuristics functions
6. Constraint satisfaction problems
7. Adversarial search (Minimax) for game playing

For learner who wish to acquire more knowledge in applying ethical AI practices in organizations and, to understand and help societies to solve problems brought about by the impact of AI.
