Artificial Intelligence Basics Online Course

Artificial Intelligence, increasingly relevant in the modern world where everything is driven by technology and data, is the process of automating any system or process to carry out complex tasks and functions automatically, in order to achieve optimal productivity.

This coure explains the basics of AI using popular Java-based libraries and frameworks to build your smart applications. We will cover easy-to-complex artificial intelligence tasks such as genetic programming, heuristic searches, reinforcement learning, neural networks, and segmentation with the practical approach we mentioned earlier.

By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of Artificial Intelligence concepts. You will be able to build your own smart applications for multiple domains, as required.

The course mainly focuses on:- 

• Get to grips with the different aspects of Artificial Intelligence
• Leverage different Java packages and tools such as WEKA, Rapidminer, deeplearning4j, and more
• Understand logic programming and how to use it
• Create machine-learning models using supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques
• Implement different deep learning algorithms in deeplearning4j and build applications based on it
• Understand the basics of heuristic searching and genetic programming
• Differentiate between syntactic and semantic similarity between texts
• Perform sentiment analysis for effective decision-making with Lingpipe
