Abstract
The middle portion is presented of a year-long course in artificial
intelligence (AI) leading to a Certificate for
AI Mind Maintainer. The arrangement of this material presumes that
the institution is operating on a quarter system of autumn, winter and spring
quarters, so a semester system will require that the weeks of instruction
presented here shall be broken roughly in half and respectively be added
to the first semester and the second semester.
