IIT Madras and NPTEL Launches Free Artificial Intelligence Course with Certificate AICTE Approved Free Online Courses

Hi everyone IIT Madras has launched Free Artificial Intelligence Course on the platform of NPTEL. You will get the access of 12 week free online course with assignments and at last an exam which you have to clear in order to get the certificate from NPTEl and IIT Madras. So, do not waste this opportunity, get all the details below and apply

AI: Knowledge Representation and Reasoning – they will go into the details of how an agent can represent its world and reason with what it knows. These two courses should lay a strong foundation for artificial intelligence, which the student can build upon. A third short course – AI: Constraint Satisfaction Problems – presents a slightly different formalism for problem solving, one in which the search and reasoning processes mentioned above can operate together.

  • INTENDED AUDIENCE: This is a first course on Artificial Intelligence. While the intended audience is both UG and PG students studying Computer Science, in fact anyone comfortable with talking about algorithms should be able to do the course.
  • PRE-REQUISITES: Nil
  • INDUSTRY SUPPORT: Any industry that is involved in development of AI applications. This not only includes software companies (like Microsoft, Google, and Facebook) but also manufacturing companies like Ford and General Electric, and retail companies like Amazon and Flipkart.
