An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence. Instructor: Prof. Mausam, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Delhi. The course introduces the variety of concepts in the field of artificial intelligence. It discusses the philosophy of AI, and how to model a new problem as an AI problem. It describes a variety of models such as search, logic, Bayes nets, and MDPs, which can be used to model a new problem. It also teaches many first algorithms to solve each formulation. The course prepares a student to take a variety of focused, advanced courses in various subfields of AI. (from nptel.ac.in)
