learning outcomes

The course aims at providing students with a solid understanding of intelligent agents and multi-agent systems (MAS), focusing on both theoretical foundations and practical applications. It explores key concepts such as autonomy, agent-based architectures, automatic reasoning, and Bayesian networks. Students will examine emerging paradigms, including agentic AI and neuro-symbolic agents, and will gain hands-on experience with technologies and platforms for building and deploying intelligent agents, including logic programming. Finally, agent-based principles, technologies, and methods will be exploited as the foundations for the engineering of intelligent systems.
