There is no required textbook this semester. I will ask you to read a couple of chapters from Introduction to Expert Systems (Addison Wesley, 1999). I will provide them as handouts.
Other readings will be drawn from textbooks, journals, conferences, and perhaps an occasional blog entry.
Links to readings will be provided as I identify them.
