Course Catalog Description

The Berkeley Seminar Program has been designed to provide new students with the opportunity to explore an intellectual topic with a faculty member in a small-seminar setting. Berkeley Seminars are offered in all campus departments, and topics vary from department to department and semester to semester.

Class Description

Some very nice and basic mathematics lies behind most of the algorithms in AI. We will explore some of these and hopefully get some experience with a network. I will try to explain in class the math that is needed.
