COMPSCI 367

: Artificial Intelligence
2020 Semester Two (1205)
The cornerstones of AI: representation, utilisation, and acquisition of knowledge. Taking a real world problem and representing it in a computer so that the computer can do inference. Utilising this knowledge and acquiring new knowledge is done by search which is the main technique behind planning and machine learning.

COMPSCI 369

: Computational Methods in Interdisciplinary Science
2025 Semester One (1253)
Many sciences use computational methods that involve the development and application of computer algorithms and software to answer scientific questions. This course looks at how to tackle these interdisciplinary problems through methods like probabilistic computer modelling, computer-based statistical inference, and computer simulations. The material is largely motivated by the life sciences but also uses examples from other sciences. It focuses on modelling and analysing real-world data with an emphasis on analysing DNA sequence data. No background in physical or life sciences is assumed.
Subject: Computer Science
Prerequisite: COMPSCI 220, and COMPSCI 225 or MATHS 254
