Hi all,
I want to take my masters within next few months. But I'm mess with that which are should I take, form Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. Mainly I'm looking the validation after three to five years in the world.
Can you guys/gals comment on me this. I really appreciate. :)
Thanks
Have you even done a bachelor's degree yet?
Moved to General Developer. Because the Chit Chat forum is for a purpose which the name of the forum itself implies - chit chat.
Yes I do, I've completed my bachelor's in computer engineering around 10 months ago.

Both are good fields and mostly depend on what you want to get into.
I'd be leaning towards AI, but only because that interests me more. What little experience I have with people having those degrees is that they are interchangeable as to what career options are open for you, so it really comes down to whether one particular career choice has a slightly greater appeal than the other.
One warning though, if you go the AI route, be prepared to learn the programming language LISP, which doesn't have the easiest syntax to learn (It's been nicknamed: "Lots of Independent Single Parentheses" for good reason. The reason LISP has been traditionally used in AI classes is because of it's native use of structures such as Lambdas and Closures.
.NET just recently got the ability to use Lambda and Closures, but they were in LISP long before that.
Lisp will expand your mind. You should learn it anyway.
Actually what I want to be is, developing software in excellent way. I'll explain in this way, correct me if I'm wrong. I've seen that lots of industry application collecting information and introduced them for further functioning. But the way data/information predict is not good, not well organized. I think AI is the step for that. Is that my thoughts are correct?Quote:

:( Learning a new language. I don't think it's good for me. ;) Anyway, let see.Quote:

I'll try my best. Actually I check the syllabus that I have to take in my masters. Followings are the core subjects I have to follow.
and followings are the elective subjects I have to take.Quote:
Programming Essentials for Artificial Intelligence
Essentials of Artificial Intelligence
Mathematics for Artificial Intelligence
Distributed Computing Concepts for AI
Deductive Reasoning and Logic Programming
Neuroscience & Neurocomputing
Evolutionary Computing
Artificial Cognitive Systems
Fuzzy Reasoning
Data Mining and Data Warehousing
Software Agents and Swarm Intelligence
Any comments on those thing my friend, I really appreciate.Quote:
Cryptography and Security Mechanisms
Semantic Web and Ontological Engineering
Intelligent Solutions for Industry
Natural Language Processing
Embedded Robotics
Inductive Logic Programming
Kansei Systems
Looks a lot more entertaining than a bog-standard CS degree, if AI's what you want to do.
:) I'm looking more here pal.
Those do look like some interesting courses! :thumb:
Of course, many folks are already masters of "Fuzzy Reasoning" :D
I'd like to sit in on most of those courses....don't really feel like taking tests anymore, though.
