.The book is thick over 1000 pages, so I'm probably not going to read the whole of it, but I started with the introduction and it was quite interesting to learn about the evolution of AI.
Philosophy, Mathematics, Economics, Neuroscience, Psychology, Computer engineering, Control theory and Cybernetics and Linguistics contributed ideas, techniques and view points to AI. The summary of the introduction in Russell and Norvig book provides good explanation in brief on how each field contributed to AI.
The book provides 4 different learning techniques. Learning from Observations, Knowledge in Learning, Statistical Learning Methods and Reinforcement Learning. In the next post I'll review whether Learning from Observation would be useful to this project.
