9780716782940: Object Oriented Artificial Intelligence Using C++

Synopsis

This book covers artificial intelligence concepts and uses C++ as the programming language of instruction.  Taking an AI search based approach, it includes implementations of an AI search library in C++ that is then used to build other AI systems using that search method.  These include theorem proving, heuristic search, and planning, knowledge representation, and natural language processing. 

The overall intent of this book was to make AI techniques more accessible to programmers and organizations outside the LISP and Prolog programming languages that were the primary programming languages used for AI at this time of this book's publication.

From the Back Cover

This innovative text presents the first full integration of object-oriented programming and principles of artificial intelligence. Using the popular language C++ as the medium to implement object-oriented designs, this book provides a uniquely cohesive foundation for senior/graduate level courses in artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence programming, and object-oriented programming courses. No other book offers this integrated, object-oriented approach.
The introductory chapters introduce the basics of artificial intelligence and object-oriented programming techniques. The book then examines advanced topics in artificial intelligence in greater depth, explains how to create object-oriented designs for those topics, and shows how to use C++ to implement those designs.
Object-Oriented Artificial Intelligence Using C++ is accompanied by exercise software--with program and exercise code available online--and each chapter includes a summary, references, and a wide range of exercises.
