Objectives of the Course
The objective of the course is to comprehensively teach students the fundamental concepts of artificial intelligence, problem-solving strategies, and modern learning algorithms. By grasping intelligent agent architectures and search methods (informed/uninformed), students will develop their algorithmic thinking frameworks. Furthermore, starting from the fundamentals of machine learning and deep learning, they will gain a theoretical foundation in contemporary technologies such as CNN, NLP, and reinforcement learning, thereby acquiring the ability to produce innovative solutions for complex data-driven problems and systems requiring autonomous decision orchestration.
