Focused Real-Time Dynamic Programming for MDPs: Squeezing More Out of a Heuristic
Real-time dynamic programming (RTDP) is a heuristic search algorithm for solving MDPs. We present a modified algorithm called Focused RTDP with several improvements. While RTDP ma...

Experimental studies of variable selection strategies based on constraint weights
An important class of heuristics for constraint satisfaction problems works by sampling information during search in order to inform subsequent decisions. One of these strategies, ...

Evaluating and Improving Modern Variable and Revision Ordering Strategies in CSPs
A key factor that can dramatically reduce the search space during constraint solving is the criterion under which the variable to be instantiated next is selected. For this purpos...

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...

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...
