Teaching Materials Online

I have just made lecture materials from my undergraduate computational intelligence course available online. The lectures cover rule-based systems, fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, evolutionary algorithms and hybrid systems. The lectures are available at: http://mike.watts.net.nz/Teaching/

These lectures were presented in the course INFO 331, Intelligent Information Systems, during my time at the Department of Information Science at the University of Otago, New Zealand. Also available at the above address are lectures I presented for the course INFO 233, Data Processing.
