Home Work
HW1: To Formulate a search problem
HW2: Using the NN Toolbox of Matlab to train a Multilayer Perceptron on given set of target values. (Matlab).
HW3: Develop a Baysian solution of the problem presented in HW #2 by using either Matlab or Java.
Research Project
The students will perform an extensive research activity that will lead them to production of original research papers based on the learning from course and related material in the following area of research.
- Forecasting of Initiatives by using Stock Exchanges data on a Neural network
- How Artificial Life can be better simulated?
- Comparative study of the Evaluation Functions for ‘Go’ game
- The students are also encouraged to suggest a topic of interest not later than 12-02-2012.
