Programming for Artificial Intelligence
Faculty of Mathematics & Informatics
Mathematics/ Computer Sciences, 4 grade
Lecturer: I. Derzhanski, I. Marinchev
Study hours: 2+2+2
The course is an introduction to the principal problems addressed,
and tools and techniques used, in artificial intelligence (AI). Topics
include: state-space search, game playing, knowledge representation,
natural language processing, machine earning, inductive logic programming.
A prior exposure to procedural programming is assumed though not strictly
required. The Prolog programming language is taught, and the specificity
of the design and implementation of AI programs is highlighted.

The theory related to the project,
by Prof. R. Denchev
The course is designed for students from the Faculty of Mathematics
and Informatics at the University of Sofia specializing in Applied Mathematics,
esp. in the fields of mathematical economy and mathematical computations.
The aim of the course is to train skills in using software packages like
MS Excel, MS Access, MS Powerpoint as necessary tools for simple data processing
and presentation. An emphasis will be set on the MATLAB system and its
toolboxes related to economical and financial computations including statistical
and fuzzy models. The final examination contains both a final project presentation
and some interviewing questions, related to the course content and the
final project.
Artificial Intelligence
Faculty of Mathematics & Informatics
Computer Sciences, 4 grade
Lecturer: I. Derzhanski, S. Boycheva
Study hours: 3+2+2
The course is a general introduction to the broad field of artificial
intelligence (AI). Its aim is to acquaint the student with the theoretical
foundations and classical problems of the field as well as the most active
current directions of AI research. Topics include: state-space
search, game playing, knowledge representation, probabilistic reasoning,
planning, natural language processing, machine learning. Familiarity
with the Prolog programming language is a prerequisite.
Fuzzy Sets and Their Applications in Computer Science
and Control
Faculty of Mathematics & Informatics
Computer Sciences, 3 grade (also available for students in Applied
Mathematics and Mathematics and Computer Science)
Lecturer: A. Popov
Study hours: 3+0+1
This is an introductory course in fuzzy sets theory. It also studies some relations with the interval computations and probability, some applications to image analysis, medical diagnosis and control of real processes. The following main topics are considered:
- Basic notions and notations;
- Fuzzy graphs and relations;
- Introduction to fuzzy logic;
- Connections with probability theory;
- Data clustering;
- Fuzzy numbers and arithmetic;
- Interval computations – basic ideas;
- Fuzzy geometry and its applications in image analysis;
- Fuzzy controllers and some of their industrial applications;
The laboratory wokshops will be based on the usage of Matlab Fuzzy Logic
Toolbox. The ESPRIT web site will be used as a reference point
for the current state of the art.
