  1. Topics Covered in COSC 6368 • More general topics: • heuristic search and search algorithm in general • logical reasoning • AI-specific Topics: • resolution / theorem proving • reasoning in uncertain environments and belief networks • knowledge-based systems • machine learning centering on inductive learning • brief coverage of ontologies, evolutionary computing, AI in general

  2. AI in General and What Was not Covered in COSC 6368 • Robotics is a quite important sub-field of AI, but very few teach it in the graduate AI class. • Planning and natural language understanding deserve more coverage than they received in this class. • Intelligent Agents and AI for the Internet might become more important changing what is taught in graduate AI-classes in a few years from now. • Data Mining and Intelligent Data Understanding should perhaps be covered in more depth.

  3. Positive Forces for AI • Knowledge Discovery in Data and Data Mining (KDD) • Intelligent Agents for WWW • Robotics (Robot Soccer, Intelligent Driving, Robot Waiters…) • Creating of Knowledge Bases and Sharing of Knowledge (especially for Science and Engineering) • Computer Chess and Computer Games --- AI for Entertainment

  4. Five “Laws” of AI • Bounded rationality implies opportunistic search • A physical system symbol is necessary and sufficient for intelligent action (PSSH) • The magic number is: 70000 +/- 20000 • Search compensates for lack of knowledge • Knowledge compensates for lack of search
