A pattern database is a lookup table that stores an exact evaluation function for a relaxed search problem, which provides an admissible heuristic for the original search problem....
The requirements imposed on information retrieval systems are increasing steadily. The vast number of documents in today's large databases and especially on World Wide Web ca...
Several real world applications involve solving combinatorial optimization problems. Commonly, existing heuristic approaches are designed to address specific difficulties of the u...
: We propose a new nonparametric family of oscillation heuristics for improving linear classifiers in the two-group discriminant problem. The heuristics are motivated by the intuit...
The formulation of planning as heuristic search with heuristics derived from problem representations has turned out to be a fruitful approach for classical planning. In this paper...
