  1. Search • Exhaustive/Blind Search Methods • Depth First Search • Breadth First Search • Heuristic Methods • Hill Climbing • Beam Search • Best First Search…

  2. Goal • You should be able to tell if search is the best way to solve a problem and • If so, which search method is most suitable

  3. Find a Path 4 A B C 4 3 5 5 s G 4 3 F D E 2 4

  4. Find a Path • Shortest Path • Any Path • Blind Search • BFS • DFS

  5. Search Tree • List all possible paths • Eliminate cycles from paths • Result: A search tree • A special kind of semantic tree where each node denotes a path

  6. Search Tree – Terminology • Root Node • Leaf Node • Ancestor/Descendant • Branching factor • Complete path/Partial path • Expanding open nodes results in closed nodes

  7. Search Trees - Analysis • Exponential explosion of possible paths • Branching factor b, Depth d, how many possible paths?

  8. Depth First Search (DFS) • Form a one element queue consisting of a zero-length path that only contains root • Until the first path in the queue terminates at the goal node or the queue is empty • Remove the first path from the queue; create new paths by extending the first path to all neighbors of the terminal node • Reject all new paths with loops • Add the new paths if any to the FRONT of the queue • If the goal node is foundsuccess; else failure

  9. Breadth First Search (BFS) • Form a one element queue consisting of a zero-length path that only contains root • Until the first path in the queue terminates at the goal node or the queue is empty • Remove the first path from the queue; create new paths by extending the first path to all neighbors of the terminal node • Reject all new paths with loops • Add the new paths if any to the BACK of the queue • If the goal node is foundsuccess; else failure

  10. BFS or DFS • DFS is good when partial paths quickly reach dead ends or become complete paths. DFS is bad when there are long paths (infinite) • BFS works on trees that are effectively infinitely deep, bad when all paths lead to the goal node at more or less the same depth. BFS is not good when b is large

  11. NonDeterministic Search • Form a one element queue consisting of a zero-length path that only contains root • Until the first path in the queue terminates at the goal node or the queue is empty • Remove the first path from the queue; create new paths by extending the first path to all neighbors of the terminal node • Reject all new paths with loops • Add the new paths at RANDOM places in the queue • If the goal node is foundsuccess; else failure

  12. NDFS • When you do not have enough information to choose between BFS and DFS
