Efficient Pruning of Operators in Planning Domains
Many recent successful planners use domain-independent heuristics to speed up the search for a valid plan. An orthogonal approach to accelerating search is to identify and remove r...

Effectiveness of Methods for Syntactic and Semantic Recognition of Numeral Strings: Tradeoffs Between Number of Features and Len
Abstract. This paper describes and compares the use of methods based on Ngrams (specifically trigrams and pentagrams), together with five features, to recognise the syntactic and s...

Weight Redistribution for Unweighted MAX-SAT
Many real-world problems are over-constrained and require search techniques adapted to optimising cost functions rather than searching for consistency. This makes the MAX-SAT probl...
