Course objectives
The course provides a basic overview of the goals, methods, and techniques of contemporary artificial intelligence (AI). The explanation is centered at the view of an intelligent agent that perceives and acts in a certain environment. Due to the restricted scope of the course, we focus on rational behaviour of the agent, i.e., how to reach its goals most efficiently. Both agents' capabilities and properties of the environment must be considered. An introduction to rational agents' construction is followed by techniques of the state space search, including a multi-agent environment and basic game strategies. The course is concluded by the basics of machine learning, including artificial neural networks.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to:
- identify and summarize the basic features of contemporary artificial intelligence.
- Apply selected techniques enabling intelligent machine behavior.
- Describe and apply basic machine learning methods.
