SGAI is pleased to be able to announce that the full-day workshop on
'Basics of Artificial Intelligence', held in Cambridge, UK last December will
be repeated in London at the British Computer Society Offices near Covent
Garden on July 12th 2007. This workshop will provide an overview of
principal topics in artificial intelligence. It will be of value to anyone who is
new to the area. It will also be of equal value to anyone who has experience
of specific aspects of AI but wishes to have a broader-based understanding.
Programme
Basics of AI - Part 1 (10.00 a.m. - 1.45 p.m.)
Part 1 will concentrate on symbolic representations of AI:
* AI fundamentals
* Case-based reasoning
* Semantic web
* Agents
Basics of AI - Part 2 (2.15 p.m. - 5.30 p.m.)
Continuing the themes of Part 1, Part 2 will concentrate on data-based and
numerical representations of AI. It will finish with an overview of how the
techniques presented in both sessions can be used cooperatively in hybrid
systems. Part 2 will, therefore, cover the following topics:
* Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining
* Genetic algorithms
* Neural nets
* Hybrids
