Course Introduction:
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is at the core of Artificial Intelligence. It is
concerned with the representation of knowledge in symbolic form and the use of this
knowledge for reasoning. This course presents current trends and research issues in
Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. It enables students interested in Artificial
Intelligence to deepen their knowledge in this important area and gives them a solid
background for doing their own work/research in this area. The topics covered in more
detail are AI Logics, Probabilistic Reasoning, Constraints, and Stochastic models

Course Objectives:
On completion of this module, students should be able to:
Demonstrate an understanding of the fundamental ideas of Knowledge
Representation and Reasoning.
Demonstrate an understanding of the principles of a number of different
approaches in Machine Learning.
Demonstrate the ability to apply AI and Computational Intelligence
techniques to a variety of research and application projects.
