Course content

This course is a continuation of TDT4136 Introduction to Artificial Intelligence. The three main ways of reasoning (rule-based, model-based, and case-based), will be discussed, with most focus given to model-based reasoning. In particular, we work with reasoning based with uncertain and/or partly missing information, as well as the basis for learning systems (machine learning). The reasoning frameworks that are most prominent in the course are Bayesian networks and decision graphs, but an introduction to neural networks is also included.

Learning outcome

Knowledge: The candidate will get knowledge of: - General principles for artificial intelligence (AI) - Efficient representation of uncertain knowledge - Decision making principles - Learning/adaptive systems. Skills: - Assess different frameworks for AI in given contexts - Build systems that realises aspects of intelligent behaviour in computer systems. General competence: - Know AI's basis taken from mathematics, logic and cognitive sciences.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, self study and exercises.

Compulsory assignments

  • Mandatory assignments

Further on evaluation

The final grade is fully determined by the exam. A number of assignments are given out during the semester. A number of these must be passed to be eligible for exam. Details will be given at the start of the course.

If the course is still not passed after a postponed exam, or by repeating the course, the approved assignments from earlier semester may be approved by the department.

The written exam will be given in English only.

If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may change from written to oral.
