Natural Language Processing (NLP) uses mathematics, data, and linguistics to teach computers how to understand human language. Assignments and programing projects to implement and improve NLP systems, such as machine translation and parsing.

This course introduces and develops methods for designing and implementing abstract data types using the Java programming language. The main focus is on how to build and encapsulate data objects and their associated operations. Specific topics include linked structures, recursive structures and algorithms, binary trees, balanced trees, and hash tables. These topics are fundamental to programming and are essential to other courses in computer science. The course involves weekly programming assignments, in-class quizzes, discussion section exercises, and multiple exams.

Computing has become data-driven, and databases are now at the heart of commercial applications. The purpose of this course is to provide a comprehensive introduction to the use of data management systems within the context of various applications. Some of the covered topics include application-driven database design, schema refinement, implementation of basic transactions, data on the web, and data visualization.

Development of mathematical reasoning skills for problems that involve uncertainty. Counting and probability, probabilistic reasoning, Naive Bayes classifiers, Monte Carlo simulation, Markov chains, Markov decision processes, classical game theory, and introduction to information theory.

Large-scale software systems like Google - deployed over a world-wide network of hundreds of thousands of computers - have become a part of our lives. These are systems success stories - they are reliable, available ("up" nearly all the time), handle an unbelievable amount of load from users around the world, yet provide virtually instantaneous results.

Introduction to computer communication networks and protocols. Fundamental concepts in the design and analysis of computer networks. Topics include: layered network architectures, applications, network, programming interfaces, transport, congestion, routing, data link protocols, local area networks, emerging high-speed networks, network management, and network security. Examples drawn from the Internet (e.g., TCP, UDP, and IP) protocol suite.

A brief introduction to the C programming language for students with a good working knowledge of Java and data structures. This course is good preparation for COMPSCI 230 and courses that use C and C++. Prerequisites: COMPSCI 187 or ECE 242 or permission of instructor. This course is for Computer Science minors and majors only, but it does not count towards either degree.

Advanced Topics in Computer Science Master's Project: Advanced research project in Computer Science.

The Course explores key concepts of artificial intelligence, including state-space and heuristic search techniques, game playing, knowledge representation, automated planning, reasoning under uncertainty, decision theory and machine learning. We will examine how these concepts are applied in the context of several applications.
