Lectures 1–4 and Project 1 connect DFS, BFS, UCS, A*, state representation, and heuristic design. The goal is not memorizing algorithms but separating what the frontier, cost, and state each control.
CS188 Spring 2026 publishes 28 recordings, 27 lecture slide sets, 11 discussions, and Projects P0–P5. P0 is a Python/autograder tutorial, P1–P4 use Pacman settings, and P5 contains general machine-learning tasks.
CMU 15-281's Search and Games explicitly credits Berkeley's Pacman AI projects. The official course site separately lists a zero-point P0 tutorial and five programming assignments, P1–P5.
