Description

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a research field that studies how to realize the intelligent problem solving on a computer. AI leans many of its basic ideas from human, but its realization is primarily based on engineering concerns. Although AI has a more than 50 years history, it cannot reach to the final goal, there are many fruitful findings and inventions. The main research topics in AI include planning, reasoning, learning, natural language understanding and generation, computer vision, automatic programming, and so on. This course describes the fundamental knowledge of AI technologies on some of the topics described above.
