Summary
I am interested in algorithms, especially those related to classic 2-player games such as Go or Hex, and to the latest techniques in artificial intelligence that help build artificial agents to play such games. I am also interested in algorithms related to famous problems in graph theory, for example the four-colour problem or the perfect graph theorem.
The second course of a two-course sequence on algorithm design. Emphasis on principles of algorithm design. Categories of algorithms such as divide-and-conquer, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming; analysis of algorithms; limits of algorithm design; NP-completeness; heuristic algorithms. Prerequisites: CMPUT 204; one of STAT 141, 151, 235 or 265 or SCI 151; one of MATH 225, 227, 228 or consent of the instructor.
Fall Term 2020An introduction to algorithms and theory behind computer programs that solve puzzles (mazes, peg solitaire, etc.) or play games (chess, Go, Hex, etc.). This course is intended for a general audience. Prerequisite: any 200-level CMPUT.
