Glomus - An Undergraduate AI Course Project
Project Overview
-
The Glomus project is developing software that can be used to implement a
course project for an undergraduate course in Aritifical Intelligence.
Glomus (a rough Latin translation of the word "clue") is a course
project we have developed for teaching students the fundamental tasks of
symbolic AI, specifically
- knowledge representation,
- reasoning, and
- taking action
The Glomus system of software provides a compelling framework for
developing agents that play a "whodunit" game similar to the boardgame Clue*.
The Glomus software provides support for the development of intelligent
agents, allowing students to focus on the fundamental tasks of symbolic AI
without having to learn a complex agent framework, new programming
language, or procure and maintain hardware.
The Glomus
web site provides access to the Glomus software,
curricular materials, and suggestions for integrating the project into
an undergraduate AI course.
