AI4GOV - Module C. Basic concepts and techniques in AI in public services - Rule-based systems

This presentation is part of the Module C of the AI4GOV Master. In this module, students will get an overview of the different types of techniques that are being used for the development and deployment of AI-based services (in the public sector and in industry).

Students will learn to differentiate between different types of knowledge, and will learn the main techniques that are used for knowledge representation, for data mining, for machine learning and for deep learning, and the different groups of tasks that can be solved with all these techniques, and when each of them are applicable.

Rule-based systems - Learning outcomes

With the presentation, students will explore rule-based systems, a traditional AI approach that relies on predefined rules to make decisions. They will also understand their strengths and limitations in the context of public service applications.

The presentation is available to access and download online.
