Features

Accessible presentation: The combination of a thorough and balanced treatment of the theoretical foundations of intelligent problem solving with the data structures and algorithms needed for implementation provides a holistic picture for students.
AI foundations: A unique discussion of the history of AI and social and the associated philosophical issues is presented in the early chapters.
Applied programming languages: Example programs are written in three programming languages, Prolog, Lisp, and—new for the Sixth Edition—Java™ in Chapters 17–19, which are available on the open-access Companion Website. These chapters show students the power of these languages and demonstrate how they can be used to create the data structures of the AI book that support “intelligent” problem solving.
Applications in context: The practical applications of AI are put into context using model-based reasoning and planning examples from the NASA space program. Comments on the AI endeavor from the perspectives of philosophy, psychology and neuro-physiology give students a holistic picture of AI’s application in the real world.
Coverage of the stochastic methodology:
＊Stochastic natural language processing, including finite state machines, dynamic programming, and the Viterbi algorithm, is integrated into introductory chapters.
＊Expanded stochastic approaches to reasoning in uncertain situations, including Bayesian belief networks and Markov models, are discussed in Chapter 9.
＊New for the Sixth Edition, Chapter 13, Probabilistically Based Machine Learning, covers stochastic methods that support machine learning.

New to this Edition

Presentation of agent technology and the use of ontologies are added to Chapter 7, Knowledge Presentation.
A new machine-learning chapter, based on stochastic methods, Chapter 13, Probabilistically-Based Machine Learning. This new chapter covers stochastic approaches to machine learning, including first-order Bayesian networks, variants of hidden Markov models, inference with Markov random fields and loopy belief propagation.
Presentation of parameter fitting with expectation maximization learning and structure learning using Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling. Use of Markov decision processes in reinforcement learning.
Natural language processing with dynamic programming (the Earley parser) and other probabilistic parsing techniques including Viterbi, are added to Chapter 15, Understanding Natural Language.
A new supplemental programming book is available: AI Algorithms in Prolog, Lisp and Java ™. Available online and in print, this book demonstrates these languages as tools for building many of the algorithms presented throughout Luger's AI book.
References and citations are updated throughout.
