Practical Exercises

Programs for Problem solving with Search

1. Implement breadth first search
2. Implement depth first search
3. Analysis of breadth first and depth first search in terms of time and space
4. Implement and compare Greedy and A* algorithms.

Supervised learning

1. Implement the non-parametric locally weighted regression algorithm in order to fit data points. Select appropriate data set for your experiment and draw graphs
2. Write a program to demonstrate the working of the decision tree based algorithm.
3. Build an artificial neural network by implementing the back propagation algorithm and test the same using appropriate data sets.
4. Write a program to implement the naive Bayesian classifier.

Unsupervised learning

1. Implementing neural network using self-organizing maps
2. Implementing k-Means algorithm to cluster a set of data.
3. Implementing hierarchical clustering algorithm.

Note:

• Installation of gnu-prolog, Study of Prolog (gnu-prolog).
• The programs can be implemented in using C++/JAVA/ Python or appropriate tools can be used by designing good user interface
• Data sets can be taken from standard repositories
• (https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets.html) or constructed by the students.
