CSE 571: Artificial Intelligence (Fall 2009)

CSE 571 will be a graduate-level follow-on to CSE 471. Students contemplating taking the course should have had exposure to AI at the level similar to what is done in CSE 471.

(Here is a link to CSE 471 course page. See the lecture notes for Spring 2009 as well as Fall 2007 to get an idea of what you are expected to know).

Some topics I expect to cover include:

• advanced search techniques
• State of the art in SAT and CSP
• advanced deterministic and decision-theoretic planning techniques
• relational and first-order probabilistic reasoning technqiues
• Multi-agent/game-theoretic techniques.
• Knowledge-based learning; Reinforcement learning
