CAP378:ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

L:3 T:0 P:0 Credits:3

Course Outcomes: Through this course students should be able to

CO1 :: define the approaches and the types of artificial intelligence used for problem solving

CO2 :: understand knowledge representation, heuristic search algorithms, and different methods
of game playing

CO3 :: apply analytical concepts to deal with uncertainty and fuzzification

CO4 :: discuss the use of different AI language and tools and apply basic principles of AI in
solutions that require inference, knowledge representation and logical reasoning.
