Artificial Intelligence

Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:

Department of Cybernetics

Synopsis:

The course is aimed at providing theoretically deeper knowledge in the area of Artificial Intelligence in the extent needed to study the branch of study Robotics. It is organized around several topics: pattern recognition and machine learning, theory of multi-agent systems and artificial life. The linkage between the theoretical and practical applications is rather stressed.
