| Educational objectives | The student will acquire fundamental concepts of artificial intelligence systems and agents based models. Student will know main algorithm for uninformed and euristics state space search. He/she will be able to model and implement an agent based system as state space search problem, as well as algorithms for 2-players, 0-sum, games. The student will learn the main techniques and algorithms for data mining and in particular for data classification; she/he will be able to design a KDD system. |
| Prerequisites | Basic knowledge on Algorithms and Python programming. |
| Teaching methods | Face to face lessons in room and laboratory. |
