Heuristic search using algorithms such as A and IDA is the prevalent method for obtaining optimal sequential solutions for classical planning tasks. Theoretical analyses of these ...
The results of the latest International Probabilistic Planning Competition (IPPC-2008) indicate that the presence of dead ends, states with no trajectory to the goal, makes MDPs h...
Planning in partially-observable dynamical systems is a challenging problem, and recent developments in point-based techniques such as Perseus significantly improve performance as...
We discuss what constitutes an integrated system in AI, and why AI researchers should be interested in building and studying them. Taking integrated systems to be ones that integr...
The degree to which a planner succeeds and meets response deadlines depends on the correctness and completenessof its modelswhichdescribe events and actions that change the world ...
