Your teaching staff will try their best to provide you with detailed assessment marks within three weeks of the submission due date. You are welcome to debate/argue for any extra points that you feel that you deserve within one week after the initial grades have been released.

If possible, please use the foils and tutorials that are located in the IVLE workbin rather than the ones listed on this publicly available website. The IVLE workbin copies are the most authoritative and will contain occasional corrections to the lecture notes and tutorial questions and answers.

Any questions about this information should be directed to the general forum on IVLE. The lecture notes have been adapted from earlier notes by Prof. Ng Hwee Tou and Prof. Tan Chew Lim, which in turn have been adapted from the original slides from Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig. Our former teaching assistant, Mr. Huang Weihua, contributed the slides for the optional lectures on vision and robotics. There's also a good set of complementary notes by the MIT OpenCourseWork project. You might want to consult and/or print them out.
