Overview

This course introduces artificial intelligence concepts using the Prolog programming language, a logic programming tool ideal for knowledge representation and reasoning. Learners will explore AI techniques such as rule-based systems, search algorithms, natural language processing, and expert systems implemented in Prolog. The course balances theory with practical coding exercises, enabling students to understand declarative programming and build intelligent applications. It’s suitable for AI enthusiasts and programmers interested in symbolic AI and logic-based problem solving.
