Learning Objective:
The course aims to provide a broad introduction to the field of artificial intelligence, its philosophical
foundations, success and failures. intelligent entities. The topics include problem solving in AI,
knowledge representation, reasoning, learning, and planning to understand the ways to make computers
intelligent in problem solving. The course will help the students in formulating the solutions to different
categories of problems in artificial intelligence through the case studies in different fields.

Course outcomes (COs):

On completion of this course, the students will be able to: Bloom’s Level
CO-1 Relate the role of agents in identifying the problems that are amenable to 2
solutions by AI methods.
CO-2 Apply the various knowledge representation techniques to represent 3
contextual and semantic-oriented information efficiently.
CO-3 Analyze probabilistic solutions to implement decision-making in different 4
fields of AI.
CO-4 Evaluate the significance of planning and learning in the development of 5
intelligent systems.
CO-5 Construct the solution methodologies for the real-world problems by 3
identifying the applications and challenges in AI.
