Computational Intelligence I: Basic Principles

Catalog description

This course is concerned with learning the fundamentals of a number of computational methodologies which are used in adaptive parallel distributed information processing. Such methodologies include neural net computing, evolutionary programming, genetic algorithms, fuzzy set theory, and "artificial life." These computational paradigms complement and supplement the traditional practices of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. Functionalities covered include self-organization, learning a model or supervised learning, optimization, and memorization.
