DTE-3606 Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Agents- project - 5 stp

• The students will have an introduction in time series and regressions supporting predictions based on historic data.  ARMA techniques will be addressed.
• Preprocessing techniques like PCA will be practiced.
• Practical use of cluster techniques, Support Vector Machines and Classification and Regression trees (CART) will be exercised
• The course will explore in depth a selection of neural networks such as LSTM and CNN.
• The students will be introduced to MAS systems and theoretical concepts associated with these i.e. ontologies, ACL, architectures, game theory and MAS-learning

A relevant undergraduate bachelor Engineering programme with minimum 30 credits mathematic/statistics topics.

Courses at the Master degree program in Computer Science. Recommended Prerequisite: Basic course in mathematical statistics.
