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.

Practical experience in the management of software development projects. Managing people, coaching, mentoring, planning, scheduling, evaluation, negotiation, and expectation management are explored. The focus is on the power of communication.

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.

Development of individual skills necessary for designing, implementing, testing and modifying larger programs: use of various modern automated tools, design strategies and patterns, working with large code bases and libraries, code refactoring.
