(*)After this class, students will know and understand the basic concepts of a large and centrally important class of methods in modern Artificial Intelligence: Probabilistic Graphical Models, used for representing and reasoning about uncertain information and knowledge in complex real-world scenarios. All three aspects related to such models will be covered: model semantics, inference, and learning. Both basic concepts and specific algorithms will be taught, and all methods will be derived in a mathematically rigorous way. Students will understand how such models can be used for problem modeling and solving, and what their limitations are.
