Course name ============== Intelligent Agents 1 Lecturer ========= VAN DER TORRE Leon PARENT Xavier VAN ZEE Marc (assistant) Assessment ========== Final exam 65% Homework/Intermediate tests 35% Objective ========= The objective of this course is to introduce students to knowledge representation and reasoning methods for intelligent agent systems. Description =========== The course has 4 parts: 1. Modal logics for agent reasoning 2. Natural language semantics 3. Nonmonotonic reasoning under uncertainty 4. Argumentation and belief revision Learning Outcomes ================= - Explain the nature and roles of different formal theories used for individual reasoning and autonomous agents, such as various modal logics, belief change formalisms, or methods for uncertainty management - Define and apply the basic concepts of one or two non-classical logics (e.g. modal logic and default logics), notably their semantics and proof calculi
