Have you ever wondered about how computers decide on what your credit worthiness is, or how they can play chess as good as a world master, or how world class circuits can be built with a minimal number of crossed wires? Perhaps you have wanted to build a human like robot, or have wanted to explore the stars with automated probes. Artificial Intelligence is the field which examines such problems. The goal is to provide a diverse theoretical overview of historical and current thought in the realm of Artificial Intelligence, Computational Intelligence, Robotics and Machine Learning Techniques.

== Grading ==
−  
−
This course has a required class element of practical work on course elements, the retake is not a substitute for practical knowledge, and it is inherently unfair that students who have not submitted these practical elements are graded the same as those who have accomplished course materials. In order to be eligible for the retake, a student is required to have submitted all course assignments, and have a passing grade on those elements. The lacking/failing elements, can be presented for this purpose up to 3 business days before the retake for evaluation. In the case of the resubmission of a failing element, a document should be attached noting which changes have been made to the assignment in order to lead to a passing mark. Lack of these elements in a passing state presented to the committee will be considered a failing grade for the retake.
  
−  
−
The retake grade will count as the final course grade, with the first retake giving no more than a B as final grade, and the second retake giving no more than a C. The first retake will be a written exam submitted to the professor, and the second retake as an oral commission.

Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs)

What is the main purpose of this course?

Have you ever wondered about how computers decide on what your credit worthiness is, or how they can play chess as good as a world master, or how world class circuits can be built with a minimal number of crossed wires? Perhaps you have wanted to build a human like robot, or have wanted to explore the stars with automated probes. Artificial Intelligence is the field which examines such problems. The goal is to provide a diverse theoretical overview of historical and current thought in the realm of Artificial Intelligence, Computational Intelligence, Robotics and Machine Learning Techniques.

ILOs defined at three levels

By the end of the course, the students should be able to ...

  • Gather an appreciation of the history of AI founders
  • Solve simple problems using random, guided, and directed, search methods and be able to compare their abilities to solve the problem using a statistical argument

Level 2: What basic practical skills should a student be able to perform?

By the end of the course, the students should be able to ...

  • Understand the PEAS model of problem definition
  • Understand the Environment Model

Question Labs within this section are primarily for supporting assistance with the above objectives, e.g. work periods with TA assistance. 0

Final assessment

Section 1

  1. Apply the PEAS model to a real world instance.
  2. You have a classification problem involving images, from the perspective of Plato and Aristotle on knowledge, which algorithm would they implement, justify your decision.
  3. Write a short essay based upon either the prosecution or defense of a trial of an Android who has passed the Turing test who is petitioning the court for human rights. What would be your case for or against using concepts in class such as Turing test, Chinese room, etc.?

Section 2

  1. Here is an example family tree. Given a simple Prolog Query - what would be the result?
  2. Here is an example logic problem. Given a Prolog Query - what would be the result.
  3. Compare and Contrast two different search algorithms in terms of time and space complexity
  4. Given data of type X, what search algorithm should you use and why?

Section 3

  1. Show an analysis on a problem instance as to which EA method you would use, justify your answer based on the representation of the problem data.
  2. Implement an EA for a problem, show statistical justification of your result.
  3. Produce a report about a new creation of an EA system with sufficient justification with hypothesis tests.
