Lectures per week: 1 lecture, 2 academic hours Practice work per week: 1 session, 2 academic hours Home work: additionally, mostly development and experimentation

Time and place

Lectures: every Monday at 10:00-11:45 at ICT403

Practice sessions: Mondays at 14:00, but this may be changed during the first lectures in case students prefer some other suitable time.

Learning outcomes

In Estonian:

• teab mitmete erialgoritmide tööpõhimõtteid
• on suuteline rakendama neid algoritme erinevate ülesannete lahendamiseks
• teab mitmete andmestruktuuride tööpõhimõtteid ja on suuteline neid rakendama
• suudab analüüsida järjestikuste ja rekursiivsete algoritmide keerukust

Brief description of the course

The course focuses on the internals of the methods of automated reasoning.

We will first have a brief look at the algorithms for

• solving propositonal formulae
• SMT methods

The main bulk of the course is devoted to algorithms and data structures used for full first order (FOL) reasoners.

The latter part will be extended to algorithms and data structures for extending standard FOL reasoners to the tasks of commonsense reasoning.

Course materials

Will be given during the course. Materials are either presentations for specific methods or scientific papers covering such methods.

An introductory material to field is the set of course notes from Geoff Sutcliffe
