Hands-on AI with Java - Tapa blanda

This book helps you: demystify AI and make it work - or play; give your robot uncanny abilities; build programs that work intelligently with humans; add smarts to computer games; program optimal path-finding for machining and robotics; and, learn artificial intelligence with Do-It-Yourself Projects. Edwin Wise's "Hands-On AI with Java" shows you how to put AI techniques to work in a wide variety of useful and entertaining ways. Robot builders, hobbyists, game developers, automated-help-desk programmers, and even manufacturing engineers can take advantage of Wise's clear explanations and generous samples of customizable Java code.This book shows you how to: give computer game characters role-playing and decision-making skills; simulate evolution to find solutions to hard problems; develop machine-to-human text interactions for help desks, adventure games, computerized tutorials, and Web agents; guide machine tools for intelligent behavior, such as tool-path optimization and efficient sheet utilization; teach your computer to play strategy games; and, solve control problems, including the classic inverted-pole problem. With its own helpful Web site (and an author who answers e-mails), "Hands-On AI with Java" is the perfect starting point in artificial intelligence.
