Artificial Intelligence Programming in Python: Exploring the Boundaries of Deep Learning, Symbolic AI, and Knowledge Representation

Artificial Intelligence Programming in Python: Exploring the Boundaries of Deep Learning, Symbolic AI, and Knowledge Representation

Hybrid Artificial Intelligence

About the Book

The tutorial material starts with a review AI topics with background information. We will then proceed to material on Python development, getting you setup for the later cookbook style examples.

We will cover Deep Learning, old fashioned symbolic AI, broad coverage of data sources as well as wide range of tups and techniques for using Python both in experiments and in production.

The author has been a general AI practitioner since 1982, developed neural network products and projects since 1986, and deep learning since 2015.
