Objectives

This course main goals are:

- to make students acquainted with Intelligent Systems research work.

- to make acquaintence with different researchers in Intelligent Systems and, through them, with different research groups active on the presented research topics.

Learning outcomes and competences

 Students should show their knowledge on at least one of the presented themes, through writing an article on the State of the Art or a small project assignment. The assignments (article and/or demonstration) should illustrate systems which are characterized by some “intelligent” component related to its adaptation, autonomy, classification or inference capabilities. Main learning outcome of this course is to make students understand what can endow a computer system with a certain level of “intelligence”.
