Science of Computational Logic

Course with SWS 2/2/0 (lecture/exercise/practical) in WS 2015

Lecturer

Tutor

SWS

  • 2/2/0

Modules

Examination method

  • Oral exam



This is the follow-up course to Logic. The course will run with 4 hours of lectures and 4 hours of tutorials per week.

We cover the areas of automated deduction and automated deduction systems, knowledge representation and reasoning, logic-based databases, program development, language design, semantics and verification methods, computational logic and machine learning, computational logic and natural language processing.

Completion in Equational Logic is not covered this year in the lectures.
