Locating Guards for Visibility Coverage of Polygons
We propose heuristics for visibility coverage of a polygon with the fewest point guards. This optimal coverage problem, often called the “art gallery problem”, is known to be ...

To Max or Not to Max: Online Learning for Speeding Up Optimal Planning
It is well known that there cannot be a single "best" heuristic for optimal planning in general. One way of overcoming this is by combining admissible heuristics (e.g. b...

Switching among Non-Weighting, Clause Weighting, and Variable Weighting in Local Search for SAT
One way to design a local search algorithm that is effective on many types of instances is allowing this algorithm to switch among heuristics. In this paper, we refer to the way in...

A New Approach to Heuristic Estimations for Cost-Based Planning
Solving relaxed problems is a commonly used technique in heuristic search to derive heuristic estimates. In heuristic planning, this is usually done by expanding a planning (reach...

Random Subsets Support Learning a Mixture of Heuristics
Problem solvers, both human and machine, have at their disposal many heuristics that may support effective search. The efficacy of these heuristics, however, varies with the probl...

A Decision Theoretic View on Choosing Heuristics for Discovery of Graphical Models
Discovery of graphical models is NP-hard in general, which justifies using heuristics. We consider four commonly used heuristics. We summarize the underlying assumptions and anal...

Domain-Independent Construction of Pattern Database Heuristics for Cost-Optimal Planning
Heuristic search is a leading approach to domain-independent planning. For cost-optimal planning, however, existing admissible heuristics are generally too weak to effectively gui...

New Techniques for Efficient Verification with Implicitly Conjoined BDDs
-- In previous work, Hu and Dill identified a common cause of BDD-size blowup in high-level design verification and proposed the method of implicitly conjoined invariants to addres...

Layout synthesis for datapath designs
DPLAYOUT is a layout synthesis tool for bit-sliced datapath designs targeting standard-cell libraries. We developed fast and efficient heuristics for placing the cells in a bit-s...

Constructing an Autonomous Agent with an Interdependent Heuristics
When we construct an agent by integrating modules, there appear troubles concerning the autonomy of the agent if we introduce a heuristics that dominates the whole agent. Thus, we ...
