The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning objectives
The class presents the main techniques for problem solving, based on the central paradigm of symbolic representation, and then proceeds to illustrate selected methods for planning, theorem proving, and satisfiability testing. The objective is that the students learn to design, apply, and evaluate algorithms, procedures, and strategies for problems whose automated solution embodies fundamental aspects of artificial intelligence. At the end of the course the students must demonstrate to know and understand the main techniques for state space search, constraint solving, planning, theorem proving, and satisfiability testing, also modulo theories. Thus, the students will know how to choose the most appropriate solution techniques for different problems, and will be prepared to continue their studies in Artificial Intelligence.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Programming, algorithms, propositional logic and first-order logic, at the undergraduate level.
Bibliography
Learning assessment procedures
The final grade for the course “Planning and Automated Reasoning” is the outcome of the combination of a grade in a written test and a grade in an individual programming project. The written test consists of problems to be solved. The project consists of the implementation of a method studied in class. The exercises in class prepare the students for the written test. The laboratory activitiesallow the students to implement algorithms that are building blocks of the project.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
1st round: 25% PI + 25% L + 25% PF + 25% P where PI is the grade in the midterm exam (end of the 1st module), L is the grade for the lab activities during the 1st module, PF is the grade in the final exam (end of the 2nd module) and P is the grade in the project done during the 2nd module.
Later rounds: 100%E where E is the grade in the written exam.
Type D and Type F activities
Type D learning activities are the student's choice, type F activities are additional knowledge useful for job placement (internships, transversal skills, project works, etc.). According to the Teaching Regulations of the Course, some activities can be chosen and entered independently in the booklet, others must be approved by a special committee to verify their consistency with the study plan. Type D or F learning activities can be covered by the following activities.
1. Modules taught at the University of Verona
Include the modules listed below and/or in the Course Catalogue (which can also be filtered by language of delivery via Advanced Search).
Booklet entry mode: if the teaching is included among those listed below, the student can enter it independently during the period in which the curriculum is open; otherwise, the student must make a request to the Secretariat, sending the form to carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it during the period indicated.
2. CLA certificate or language equivalency
In addition to those required by the curriculum/study plan, the following are recognized for those matriculated from A.Y. 2021/2022:
- English language: 3 CFUs are recognized for each level of proficiency above that required by the course of study (if not already recognized in the previous course of study).
- Other languages and Italian for foreigners: 3 CFUs are recognized for each proficiency level starting from A2 (if not already recognized in the previous study cycle).
These CFUs will be recognized, up to a maximum of 6 CFUs in total, of type F if the study plan allows it, or of type D. Additional elective credits for language knowledge may be recognized only if consistent with the student's educational project and if adequately justified.
Those enrolled until A.Y. 2020/2021 should consult the information found here.
Method of inclusion in the booklet: request the certificate or equivalency from CLA and send it to the Student Secretariat - Careers for the inclusion of the exam in the career, by email: carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it
Warning: to students, who have achieved the B2 level of English in their three-year careers (bachelor), we emphasize the need to replace the full B2 level of English, provided by the study plan, with the C1 level of "computerized" English (prova informatizzata) or to acquire other language proficiency in a community language at least at the full B1 level.
3. Transversal skills
Discover the training paths promoted by the University's TALC - Teaching and learning center intended for students regularly enrolled in the academic year of course delivery https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali
Mode of inclusion in the booklet: the teaching is not expected to be included in the curriculum. Only upon obtaining the Open Badge will the booklet CFUs be automatically validated. The registration of CFUs in career is not instantaneous, but there will be some technical time to wait.
4. Internship/internship period
In addition to the CFUs stipulated in the curriculum/study plan (check carefully what is indicated on the Teaching Regulations): here information on how to activate the internship.
