Course Goals

The aim of this course is to introduce you to the basic ideas of " classical AI". We will cover the first eight chapters of the book " Computational Intelligence". This will allow us to address the three central issues of classical AI -- knowledge representation, search and inference. We will examine a number of application areas in detail to show how these ideas are used in real systems.

The notes presented here are somewhat telegraphic. They are used to remind me of the topics that I need to discuss.
