COGS-6240, Logic and Artificial Intelligence
This course is about the connection between logic and artificial intelligence (AI). It may be partitioned into three general sections: 1) the straightforward application of first- order logic (FOL) in AI; 2) the broadening of FOL to enable a robot to reason in a commonsense way (nonmonotonic reasoning, induction, etc.) and to formalize a robot agent's belief and knowledge system (modal logics, etc.); and 3) using a logical approach to the Frame Problem and to building a planner. Spring term annually. 4 credit hours
