Artificial Intelligence Research Seminar

Com S 610 Spring 1996.

Vasant Honavar and the AI Research Group

Meeting Time: Thursday, 1:30-3:30pm

Meeting Place: 217 Atanasoff

Seminar Description

The Artificial Intelligence Research Seminar will meet (once a week for 2 hours) this spring. This term, the seminar will focus primarily on selected topics in:

Neural Architectures for Knowledge Representation and Inference
Grammar Inference and Language Learning
Neural Network Learning Algorithms and Computational Learning Theory

Evolutionary Computing and Evolutionary Robotics

Other topics of interest to the members of the AI research group, such as evolutionary robotics and constructive neural network learning algorithms may also be covered.

Interested students may register for 1-3 credits for ComS 610 (VH) depending on their anticipated level of involvement (sitting in and participating in discussion to reading and presenting selected papers).
