About the course

Artificial intelligence research at Tufts Computer Science is centered at the Machine Learning Group and the Human-Robot Interaction Lab with some collaboration between the labs. Our work spans many aspects of AI:

　　Learning: including foundations and algorithms for machine learning and data mining, interdisciplinary applications, and learning from natural language instructions

　　Planning: including deterministic and decision-theoretic planning, learning for planning, and applying planning to robotic domains

　　Knowledge representation and inference: including representation, inference algorithms and complexity analysis for propositional problems, and for relational structured domain

　　Natural language understanding: including parsing, semantic and pragmatic analysis, and dialogue processing

　　Agent architectures: for simulated and robotic agents, including investigations of architectural tradeoffs and novel architectural mechanisms and algorithms for introspection and reflection, fault detection and recovery

　　Cognitive architectures: for complex computational models of human cognitive functions and for complex artificial agents that interact with humans in natural language

　　Multi-agent systems: including computational middle-ware for artificial virtual and robotic agents, as well as grid-based computational infrastructures and simulation environments

　　Human-robot interaction: including empirical investigations and evaluations of robots interacting with humans in a variety of tasks, using natural language as well as brain-computer interfaces

　　Robot/machine ethics: including foundational work on potential dangers of technology as well as empirical human-robot interaction studies Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships

How to apply

Entry requirements for Tufts University

Applicants will be required to upload a copy of transcripts received from each college or university attended where credit was earned toward an undergraduate, graduate or professional degree. Transcripts for study abroad or transfer programs are not required if the course titles, grades, and credit hours are included on the transcript of the degree-granting institution. If the transcript is in a language other than English, please provide an official translation. If you are offered admission, you will be required to request that official hard copy transcripts from all of your degree granting institutions be sent directly to Tufts.TOEFL IBT - 90. IELTS - 6.5.
