Institutional Learning Outcomes: Knowledge Students investigate non-deterministic computer algorithms that are used in wide application areas but cannot be written in pseudo programming languages. Non-deterministic algorithms have been known as topics of machine learning or artificial intelligence. Students are introduced to the use of classical artificial intelligence techniques and soft computing techniques. Classical artificial intelligence techniques include knowledge representation, heuristic algorithms, rule-based systems, and probabilistic reasoning. Soft computing techniques include fuzzy systems, neural networks, and genetic algorithms. Students will be able to connect and apply a depth and breadth of knowledge in Artificial Intelligence to a wide domain of complex problems beyond Computing Science. Prerequisite: COMP 2230 (min. grade C) or COMP 2231 (min. grade C) and MATH 1650 (min. grade C) or MATH 1651 (min. grade C) or STAT 2000 (min. grade C) and MATH 2120 (min. grade C) or MATH 2121 (min. grade C).
