Excellent professor!

There are some professors who you know knows their stuff just by listening to them speak. He is one of them. And it didn't even take 10% of his ability teaching this class. Lots of readings on relevant topics in AI basics and Phil of AI; never had more enjoyable lectures than his. Choice of final paper (topic of your relevant interest) or exam.

Course grade was based on one of three grading options: 2 midterms at 50%, two midterms at 25% & final at 50%, or final at 100%. Professor Allen is very passionate, this course was just difficult to succeed in due to the complex nature of the subject and the difficult exams (avg on midterm 1 was 64% w/ no curve, no partial credit).
