Search algorithms

Graphplan

Graphplan is an algorithm for automated planning developed by Avrim Blum and in 1995. Graphplan takes as input a planning problem expressed in STRIPS and produces, if one is possible, a sequence of operations for reaching a goal state. The name graphplan is due to the use of a novel planning graph, to reduce the amount of search needed to find the solution from straightforward exploration of the state space graph. In the state space graph: * the nodes are possible states, * and the edges indicate reachability through a certain action. On the contrary, in Graphplan's planning graph: * the nodes are actions and atomic facts, arranged into alternate levels, * and the edges are of two kinds: 1. * from an atomic fact to the actions for which it is a condition, 2. * from an action to the atomic facts it makes true or false. the first level contains true atomic facts identifying the initial state. Lists of incompatible facts that cannot be true at the same time and incompatible actions that cannot be executed together are also maintained. The algorithm then iteratively extends the planning graph, proving that there are no solutions of length l-1 before looking for plans of length l by backward chaining: supposing the goals are true, Graphplan looks for the actions and previous states from which the goals can be reached, pruning as many of them as possible thanks to incompatibility information. A closely related approach to planning is the Planning as Satisfiability (Satplan). Both reduce the automated planning problem to search for plans of different fixed horizon lengths. (Wikipedia).

What is a Graph? | Graph Theory

What is a graph? A graph theory graph, in particular, is the subject of discussion today. In graph theory, a graph is an ordered pair consisting of a vertex set, then an edge set. Graphs are often represented as diagrams, with dots representing vertices, and lines representing edges. Each

What are Connected Graphs? | Graph Theory

What is a connected graph in graph theory? That is the subject of today's math lesson! A connected graph is a graph in which every pair of vertices is connected, which means there exists a path in the graph with those vertices as endpoints. We can think of it this way: if, by traveling acr

Graph Theory FAQs: 01. More General Graph Definition

In video 02: Definition of a Graph, we defined a (simple) graph as a set of vertices together with a set of edges where the edges are 2-subsets of the vertex set. Notice that this definition does not allow for multiple edges or loops. In general on this channel, we have been discussing o
