17.1 Introduction

With the advancement of technology, the use of computers and smart devices is increasing day by day. Increased usage and desire trigger the next step by making life easier. At this point, artificial intelligence, which aims to solve problems and eliminate requests, comes into play. In this section, first of all, artificial intelligence is explained and general usage areas are explained with examples. The objectives and levels of natural language processing (NLP), which is one of the subfields of artificial intelligence, are mentioned. The classification of robots is given in detail by making the most important definitions about the very popular robotic field that attracts everyone's attention. Image preprocessing, image enhancement, image separation, feature extraction, and image classification techniques are explained by explaining the logic of image processing, which is one of the most important subfields of artificial intelligence. Problem solving, which is the basic task of artificial intelligence, is explained in detail. Optimization related to problem solving is defined and applications related to this field are given with examples. Finally, today's ...
