Dix, Alan / Escritor
An authoritative and accessible one-stop resource, the first edition of An Introduction to Artificial Intelligence presented one of the first comprehensive examinations of AI. Designed to provide an understanding of the foundations of artificial intelligence, it examined the central computational techniques employed by AI, including knowledge representation, search, reasoning and learning, as well as the principal application domains of expert systems, natural language, vision, robotics, software agents and cognitive modelling. Many of the major philosophical and ethical issues of AI were also introduced.
