From Book News, Inc.
This introductory text emphasizes important and lasting AI ideas and is intended for a one-semester introductory college course, a precursor to more advanced courses. It begins by considering elementary reactive agents which can sense and report on factors in their environment, and moves on to consider more complex agents, including those which can plan a series of actions based on their effects, those which can be said to "reason" and "deduce" properties of their environment, and those which exist in environments where they must interact and communicate with other agents. Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR
Product Description:
Intelligent agents are employed as the central characters in this new introductory text. Beginning with elementary reactive agents, Nilsson gradually increases their cognitive horsepower to illustrate the most important and lasting ideas in AI. Neural networks, genetic programming, computer vision, heuristic search, knowledge representation and reasoning, Bayes networks, planning, and language understanding are each revealed through the growing capabilities of these agents. The book provides a refreshing and motivating new synthesis of the field by one of AI's master expositors and leading researchers. Artificial Intelligence: A New Synthesis takes the reader on a complete tour of this intriguing new world of AI.
