This course is part of Introducción a la inteligencia artificial.
This comprehensive course focuses on automated problem-solving through search algorithms, teaching students how to abstract problems as state-action graphs and analyze their complexity. You'll learn to evaluate computational resource consumption of different algorithms to select the most appropriate approach for specific problems. The curriculum covers both uninformed search methods like DFS and BFS, as well as informed approaches like A* and IDA*, and even introduces metaheuristic algorithms for complex problems. Through hands-on Python programming assignments, you'll implement these algorithms and apply them to concrete problems, culminating in solving the Rubik's Cube challenge. This practical approach ensures you gain both theoretical understanding and practical skills in algorithmic problem-solving.

There are 5 modules in this course
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to automated problem-solving using search algorithms. The curriculum is structured to build from fundamental concepts to advanced techniques. Students first learn to abstract problems as state-action graphs and understand algorithmic complexity analysis. The course then explores uninformed (blind) search algorithms including Depth-First Search (DFS), Breadth-First Search (BFS), and Uniform Cost Search (UCS), analyzing their strengths and limitations. Moving to informed search, students master the A* algorithm and learn to design effective heuristic functions. The final sections cover advanced techniques like Iterative Deepening A* (IDA*) and metaheuristic approaches such as Simulated Annealing and Genetic Algorithms, particularly useful for complex problems. Throughout the course, theoretical concepts are reinforced through Python implementations and practical applications, culminating in solving the Rubik's Cube challenge.
