Features: This book is based on the fundamental requirements of the "Artificial Intelligence Examination Syllabus" for various levels of academic degrees in engineering disciplines, as outlined by the National Degree Committee, and combines the author's extensive practical experience in teaching artificial intelligence principles. The content comprehensively reflects the overall structure of the artificial intelligence discipline and the research progress both domestically and internationally, making the book both novel and practical. It is suitable for teaching and engineering applications at different levels for both undergraduate and graduate students. The book is divided into 12 chapters, covering most of the fundamental theories and advanced artificial intelligence.
Fundamental Theories Part: Chapters 1-7, including topics such as artificial intelligence and its development, artificial intelligence logic, the representation and modeling of knowledge in machines, deterministic logic reasoning, uncertain reasoning, heuristic search and game theory with alpha-beta pruning, and expert systems.
Advanced Artificial Intelligence Part: Chapters 8-12, with main content including data mining and knowledge discovery, artificial neural networks and neural computing, distributed artificial intelligence and multi-Agent systems, evolutionary computing and the principles of genetic algorithms, artificial life and swarm intelligence, etc. It also explores various computational intelligence methods and applications in conjunction with specific content.
This book can be flexibly selected based on the emphasis of different universities on the production and research directions of relevant majors for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as the principles of "less but better" and the arrangement of teaching hours. It allows for the selection of different content in the curriculum to meet the needs of classroom teaching and systematic extracurricular reading.
