My interest in artificial intelligence started with reading books about the integral concepts in AI. It developed into a passion that I explored through courses in which I coded projects centered around AI. This gave me the opportunity to practice my programming skills while also learning about how AI is used in the world around us.
AI Projects
Games
I created a program that made a user compete against an algorithm in the game Tic Tac Toe, and the goal was to get the AI to choose an optimal path in order to win. This optimization also came into play with the crossword puzzle, where the program made the AI generate solutions from a set list of words and the crossword options for letters. The minesweeper game was probably the most entertaining for me because I got to play against the AI a lot. In this case the most important aspect was how the AI drew its conclusions from the knowledge base, which used logic to represent information that it could make inferences from. 
Certificates
Neural Networks
I implemented a program that dealt with computer vision by using a neural network to classify road signs based on an image of those signs 
Languages
I wrote a program to determine the structure of a sentence and extract noun phrases through statistical likelihood, and also created AI that was designed to answer questions by extracting information from relevant passages
