Description
CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Artificial Intelligence by David L. Poole , Alan K. Mackworth
Artificial intelligence including machine learning has emerged as a transformational science and engineering discipline. Artificial Intelligence: Foundations of Computational Agents presents AI using a coherent framework to study the design of intelligent computational agents. By showing how the basic approaches fit into a multidimensional design space readers learn the fundamentals without losing sight of the bigger picture. The new edition also features expanded coverage on machine learning material as well as on the social and ethical consequences of AI and ML. The book balances theory and experiment showing how to link them together and develops the science of AI together with its engineering applications. Although structured as an undergraduate and graduate textbook the books straightforward selfcontained style will also appeal to an audience of professionals researchers and independent learners. The second edition is wellsupported by strong pedagogical features and online resources to enhance student comprehension.
