About this book
Reviews
“The book overall is very readable and relevant. One of the most valuable aspects of this book are the worked out examples and numerous (solved) exercises. … Overall, this is a very well written and pedagogical book that fills an important niche in the Artificial Intelligence educational literature. Highly recommended.” (Bojan Tunguz, tunguzreview.com, July, 2015)
“This accessible and concise introduction to the field of artificial intelligence (AI) is intended primarily for self-study or as a foundation of a short course on the subject. The book consists of ten topic chapters, each one of which offers an extended list of exercises. Chapter 11 contains solutions to all exercises. Additional teaching resources, including lecture slides, are available on the book website.” (Neli Zlatareva, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1238, 2012)
“The book is aimed primarily at undergraduates who have not yet taken linear algebra or multidimensional calculus. … it contains many exercises with solutions at the back; thus, it supports self-learning. … The many excellent figures, some in color, help make the material easily understandable. A companion Web site contains supplementary materials, such as program code for the book, most of which is in or commented on in German. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above.” (S. L. Tanimoto, Choice, Vol. 49 (2), October, 2011)
