The AI systems projects are designed to provide hands-on experience for the topics covered in the AI lectures.
The AI-1 Systems Project focuses on the symbolic methods discussed in the [AI-1 lecture](https://kwarc.info/courses/ai1/)(search,constraint satisfaction, SAT solving, semantic web, planning)
The AI-1 Systems Project focuses on the symbolic methods discussed in the [AI-1 lecture](https://kwarc.info/courses/ai1/)(search, SAT solving, semantic web, planning, ...)
and the AI-2 Systems Project focuses on the subsymbolic methods covered by the [AI-2 lecture](https://kwarc.info/courses/ai2/)(Bayesian networks, (hidden) markov problems, machine learning, ...).
Each AI systems project is worth 10 ECTS.
Generally, you can pick whichever project sounds more interesting to you/is more relevant for your studies.

You will probably be placed on a waiting list (this is normal; demand is high). We first accept people from the waiting list of the previous semester, so the course may already be fuller than indicated.
However, we will regularly accept new people throughtout the semester,
whenever students have finished or dropped out.
The project is designed in a way that you can join at any point, including in the middle of the semester.
In that case your project would simply continue for a while after the semester ends.
Note that we prioritize students in the AI and Computer Science master program.
**Important: Make sure to regularly check if you have been admitted (you should also get an email notification).
If you miss some of the early deadlines, we assume that you are not interested in the project and will remove you to give other students a chance.**

* Then you can get started with the warm-up problem.
The warm-up problem has to be solved individually and is a requirement to take the project.
It is also an opportunity for you to see if the project works for you. You can still decide to drop the project after starting the warm-up problem.
* Once you have solved the warm-up problem, you can sign up to solve the other ≈5 problems. These are intended to be solved in teams of size two.
* Once you have solved the warm-up problem, you can sign up to solve the other ≈5 problems. These are intended to be solved in teams of size two,
but currently we also allow teams of size one (that might change at any point though).
Each problem is offered once a semester. It's up to you if you want to do all of them in one semester or e.g. spread it over two semesters.
* You will have to a give a presentation on one of the problems. We will use some sort of sign-up process for that as well.
* You will have to write a report on one of the problems (can be the one you present). Furthermore, we will simulate double-blind peer review,
