Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach – A Quick Read
| Overall Rating | No Ratings |
The area of artificial intelligence is full of various books. Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach is one of the best books published for the subject field of artificial intelligence and the book is extensively used in the universities.
The book Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach was written by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig. In addition to that, this book is viewed as one of the most influencial text books in the study of AI. Currently it is reported that the book is used in thousand one hundred universities over hundred and two countries. I’m pretty sure that this is an amazing accomplishment for a text book.
Part one simply introduces the subject field of artificial intelligence to the students. As the book is published for undergraduate studies, the readers only have to have some level of knowledge in mathematics and computer science. In addition to that Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach book introduces intelligence agents in the first part.
In the part two, artificial intelligence problem solving is presented. Although someone will feel that it is too early to talk about artificial intelligence problem solving, this part simply explains the approaches used for problem solving without going to greater discussions.
Part three to part seven of Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach is about various areas of artificial intelligences. Part three talks about knowledge and reasoning in a broader sense. In this chapter, much emphasis has been put on first-order logic and related problems.
Artificial intelligence planning is the next chapter in the book. When it comes to AI, not much emphasis has been given for AI planning. Therefore, dedicating an entire part for planning is a great move as it fulfills the knowledge requirement of the students.
Part five is totally dedicated for uncertainty related problems. Uncertain knowledge and reasoning is what is under focus in this part. In addition to that, this chapter introduces a great deal of knowledge about simple and complex decision making in artificial intelligence.
Since machine learning is one of the important topics of artificial intelligence, Artificial Intelligence Modern Approach has dedicated the next part for machine learning. By giving the students the full picture of machine learning, this chapter talks about all sorts of machine learning activities.
Part seven is all about robotics. I think the authors have kept the most interesting part to the end of the book, just for keeping the students interested in the book. This is the part where the robotics is discussed in detail. At last, the book ends at part eight with the conclusions.
