That includes the implementation of algorithms for specific problems and the use of existing tools. The [Artificial Intelligence 1 lecture](/courses/ai1/) ([last year's lecture notes for AI 1 & 2](/teaching/AI/notes-2019-20.pdf)) is not a strict requirement but we do recommend to take it as we will not teach the topics again in the project. -Note that the project will generally be paced more slowly than the lecture, i.e. you can take the project and the lecture in parallel. +Except for the first 1 or maybe 2 problems, the project will behind the lecture, +i.e. you can take the project and the lecture in parallel. This is the first iteration of the AI-1 Systems Project and we only recently started planning it. Therefore, a lot of things are not yet decided and we will update this website as we go along. -The AI-1 Systems Project will consist of several projects, which you will work on individually or in teams. +The AI-1 Systems Project will consist of several problems, which you will work on individually or in teams. +Each problem will require a substantial amount of programming work - after all the project is worth 10 ECTS. + +##### It's different from "Projekt zur Künstlichen Intelligenz" +On UnivIS, you will also find "Projekt zur Künstlichen Intelligenz (P KI)". +The systems project and "P KI" both count as a project for the master's degree (in Informatik or Artificial Intelligence). +Despite the similar names, they are very different: +The systems project (as described on this page) is organized more like a course, parallel to the AI 1 lecture, +and every student will work on the same set of problems. +"P KI", on the other hand, is an individual research project with the kwarc group. +In the AI Master you need two projects, so you could even take both (then taking the systems project first is probably a good idea). -### Project plan (work in progress) -| Topic | Project | +##### Project plan (work in progress) + +| Topic | Problem | |-------|---------| | Search | Find "best" connections for the Indian railway network | -| Adversarial Search | ? | +| Adversarial Search | Current plan: Create an agent for a variant of [Sternhalma](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_checkers) | +| Constraint Satisfaction | Current idea: Create a schedule for FAU lectures (if we get the data) | +
