CS365: Artificial Intelligence

You should pick one paper from the list below, and make a one page summary explaining what you understand of its objectives and its main contributions. The writeup is due next Wednesday Feb 13, when we will also be having our project discussion meetings. Some groups will be asked to make presentations in class after the midsem.

Papers will be assigned on first request basis. So please be quick to email your preference order for at least TWO paper choices to deepalis@ ; we will be updating the list below with who has selected which paper as they become available. In case your top choice is gone and you want an alternate paper you can mail me.

List of papers

many papers in this list deal with learning, which reflects the broad shift towards machine learning in AI. Many of the papers are concerned to applications of learning in language and vision, and also robotics.
