Comment:

Covered a lot of topics in AI including search, RL, belief networks, and supervised learning. He gave nice lectures on his areas of research, RTHS and A-life. His explanations were clear and he encouraged participation, and when things were confusing, the textbook helped fill in the gaps. Assignments were fairly graded, but the midterm was brutal.

Very good prof, with a few big flaws. The tested material was not an accurate representation of class material, leading to low averages. That said, he is very friendly, approachable professor who answers questions extremely well and makes the class easy to understand. He also teaches 250, which seems like an awesome class for him to teach.

Well, he is a really good prof. The exam is quite easy and only covers the lecture slids. His liecture sometimes is sort of boring but the exam is easy.

Good teacher, has problems with exams. Tests things that aren't talked about very much. Midterms are very difficult. Midterm averages were both 60%, but half the class got 80-90% and half got 30-50%. Questions are specific, first midterm had a third of questions on a single concept tht was never tested in labs. Second midterm was not better.

Comment:

Awesome teacher, kind of inconsistent in terms of exam difficulty, so you might get smacked around randomly in terms of grades (first midterm avg, 53%, second midterm avg, 91%) but it wasn't intentional, he just over-corrected with the second midterm. Makes you VERY interested in the class and teaches it like he studies it.

His courses are challenging, but he is a good teacher. Also, his questions on his exams are nice. Whoever makes a question based on Terminator is a great prof in my book ;)

Amazing prof, how he gets students to pay attention even if he is 10 minutes late is commendable. Always clear and concise and willing ot help, more of a coach than teacher. Excellent prof. and hot.
