List of related AI Classes

CS229 covered a broad swath of topics in machine learning, compressed into a sin-
gle quarter. Machine learning is a hugely inter-disciplinary topic, and there are many
other sub-communities of AI working on related topics, or working on applying machine
learning to different problems.
Stanford has one of the best and broadest sets of AI courses of pretty much any
university. It offers a wide range of classes, covering most of the scope of AI issues. Here
are some some classes in which you can learn more about topics related to CS229:

AI Overview
• CS221 (Aut): Artificial Intelligence: Principles and Techniques. Broad overview
of AI and applications, including robotics, vision, NLP, search, Bayesian networks,
and learning. Taught by Professor Andrew Ng.

Robotics
• CS223A (Win): Robotics from the perspective of building the robot and controlling
it; focus on manipulation. Taught by Professor Oussama Khatib (who builds the
big robots in the Robotics Lab).
• CS225A (Spr): A lab course from the same perspective, taught by Professor Khatib.
• CS225B (Aut): A lab course where you get to play around with making mobile
robots navigate in the real world. Taught by Dr. Kurt Konolige (SRI).
• CS277 (Spr): Experimental Haptics. Teaches haptics programming and touch
feedback in virtual reality. Taught by Professor Ken Salisbury, who works on
robot design, haptic devices/teleoperation, robotic surgery, and more.
• CS326A (Latombe): Motion planning. An algorithmic robot motion planning
course, by Professor Jean-Claude Latombe, who (literally) wrote the book on the
topic.

Knowledge Representation & Reasoning


• CS222 (Win): Logical knowledge representation and reasoning. Taught by Profes-
sor Yoav Shoham and Professor Johan van Benthem.
• CS227 (Spr): Algorithmic methods such as search, CSP, planning. Taught by Dr.
Yorke-Smith (SRI).

Probabilistic Methods
• CS228 (Win): Probabilistic models in AI. Bayesian networks, hidden Markov mod-
els, and planning under uncertainty. Taught by Professor Daphne Koller, who
works on computational biology, Bayes nets, learning, computational game theory,
and more.

1
Perception & Understanding

• CS223B (Win): Introduction to computer vision. Algorithms for processing and


interpreting image or camera information. Taught by Professor Sebastian Thrun,
who led the DARPA Grand Challenge/DARPA Urban Challenge teams, or Pro-
fessor Jana Kosecka, who works on vision and robotics.
• CS224S (Win): Speech recognition and synthesis. Algorithms for large vocabu-
lary continuous speech recognition, text-to-speech, conversational dialogue agents.
Taught by Professor Dan Jurafsky, who co-authored one of the two most-used
textbooks on NLP.
• CS224N (Spr): Natural language processing, including parsing, part of speech
tagging, information extraction from text, and more. Taught by Professor Chris
Manning, who co-authored the other of the two most-used textbooks on NLP.
• CS224U (Win): Natural language understanding, including computational seman-
tics and pragmatics, with application to question answering, summarization, and
inference. Taught by Professors Dan Jurafsky and Chris Manning.

Multi-agent systems

• CS224M (Win): Multi-agent systems, including game theoretic foundations, de-


signing systems that induce agents to coordinate, and multi-agent learning. Taught
by Professor Yoav Shoham, who works on economic models of multi-agent interac-
tions.
• CS227B (Spr): General game playing. Reasoning and learning methods for playing
any of a broad class of games. Taught by Professor Michael Genesereth, who works
on computational logic, enterprise management and e-commerce.

Convex Optimization

• EE364A (Win): Convex Optimization. Convexity, duality, convex programs, inte-


rior point methods, algorithms. Taught by Professor Stephen Boyd, who works on
optimization and its application to engineering problems.

AI Project courses

• CS294B/CS294W (Win): STAIR (STanford AI Robot) project. Project course


with no lectures. By drawing from machine learning and all other areas of AI,
we’ll work on the challenge problem of building a general-purpose robot that can
carry out home and office chores, such as tidying up a room, fetching items, and
preparing meals. Taught by Professor Andrew Ng.
