Read more Dear students, I apologize for so abruptly ending the video stream of the lecure on Monday, but, unfortunatelly, my laptop suddenly died. In the last 10 minutes of the lecture we talked about some basic compilations of PDDL tasks. You can find short notes on this part on the last page of the whiteboard pdf in CMS. However, this part will not be part of the final exam, and I'll go over it again quickly at the beggining of the next lecture, which will be on Monday June 20 due to the public holiday this Thursday. The remaining three lectures on planning will continue to be held in a hybrid form, but if you want to ask any questions you need to come in person to the lecture hall. Best, Dan Fiser |

Dear all, YouTube sent me this email today: " Our team has reviewed your content, and we think you may need to make changes to make sure it doesn't violate our spam, deceptive practices and scams policy. In the meantime, we've made the following content private: Video: AI 2022 -- Lecture 11 We haven’t applied a strike to your channel, and if you make changes, or if you think we've made a mistake, you can request to make your content public again. However, there may be some instances where YouTube keeps your content private. Content locked as private won't appear on your channel or in search results, and it won't be visible to other users. Learn more about how this works. So, if you're wondering why you cannot access the video, that's why. What can I say (other than rolling my eyes). I'm trying to fix it. best, Jörg |

Read more Hi all, as you can see from the timetable, I'll be giving the lectures in the next weeks, until June 9. We'll still do the lecture online next week, May 9 and May 12, as I'd like the Covid numbers to go down a bit more. However, after that, we'll go hybrid. Starting May 16, the lectures will be in GHH (Günter-Hotz Hörsaal); you will also be able to access them in zoom (same link as before); and they will also be streamed to YouTube (link posted in zoom chat, as before). I will try to watch the zoom chat during the lecture to answer questions from students participating online; but I'm not sure how well this will work out. If you want to participate actively, best come to GHH. Note: The hybrid mode will be for the time being. It's not decided yet how we will continue after my part of the lecture. Looking forward to see you in real life soon, Jörg Hoffmann

Artificial Intelligence
This course offers a general introduction into the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI), its history, key assumptions, paradigms, concepts, and fundamental methods. Students learn to master and apply techniques developed in the fields of intelligent agents, search algorithms and game playing, knowledge representation, logical reasoning and deduction, planning, constraint reasoning, machine learning, and reasoning under uncertainty. We explain how and when these methods work and for which problem classes they are suitable to successfully build AI systems. With the knowledge acquired in this course, students are well-prepared to successfully attend the many special lectures on AI offered at UdS or to write their Bachelor or Master thesis in the field of AI.
