Subject: Welcome to CS373!
To:
je...@tortuga.coopWelcome Jeff Tamer!
I'm really excited you've enrolled in our new class,
AI for
Robotics,
beginning February 20! Over the next 7 weeks, I will teach you how to
program and test all the major systems of a robotic car, while also
teaching you important concepts in computer science and artificial
intelligence.
Although this course builds off of the
AI class
Peter
and I taught last fall, it is not a prerequisite. We do however recommend
experience with Linear Algebra and Probability.
We will be programming in Python throughout the course, so familiarity with
this language is expected. If you already know a different programming
language and would still like to take the course, you are in luck! Python's
syntax is especially easy to pick up, and a little time spent
here should
have you coding with Python in no time.
Each week, there will be a new unit that is made up of lecture videos,
embedded quizzes, and answer discussions. Along with the lecture, we will
also be posting class notes and links to extra material. I have an
assistant for this course, Andy, who will be helping answer your questions.
At the end of each unit, there will be a homework assignment with some
problems for you to solve on your own, and the final week there will be an
exam. Students who complete the course will receive a grade and a
certificate of accomplishment.
I am very excited to teach all of you the sheer magic involved in making a
car drive itself. If you have friends who haven't signed up yet, please
encourage them to join soon! Enrollment will be open until February 27.
See you in class!
Sebastian
