TDDA13 Artificial Intelligence , 5 ECTS credits.
/Artificiell intelligens/

For:   D   IT  

  Area of Education:

Subject area:

  Advancement level (A-D): B

Aim:
The course gives an introduction to artificial intelligence (AI) and its applications. Focus is on developing intelligent agents systems that can decide what to do and do it. This requires techniques for problem solving, knowledge and reasoning, learning, communication, perceiving and acting.

Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
TDDB 92 Programming in Incremental Systems TATM 90 Discrete Mathematics and Logic TDDB 25 Programming: Abstraction and Modelling TDDB 57 Data Structures and Algorithms

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
TDDA 14 AI Programming TDDB 66 Expert Systems - Methods and Tools

Organisation:
The course consists of 36 hours of lectures and 24 hours laboratory work. Lectures are devoted to theory; AI techniques are practised in the laboratory work.

Course contents:
Overview of AI and its applications. Search as a problem-solving method. Logic as a means of representing knowledge. Reasoning with incomplete information; nonmonotonic and probabilistic reasoning. Structured knowledge representation. Action planning for robots. AI methods in natural language processing. Strategies for automatic learning. Orientation in architectures for AI.
