23
Q

What is the Approach?

A

Start with a frontier that contains the initial state.

Repeat:
* If the frontier is empty, then no solution.
* Remove a node from the frontier.
* If node contains goal state, return the solution.
*Expand node, add resulting nodes to the frontier.

24
Q

What is the Revised Approach?

A

Start with a frontier that contains the initial state.
* Start with an empty explored set.

Repeat:
* If the frontier is empty, then no solution.
* Remove a node from the frontier.
* If node contains goal state, return the solution.
* Add the node to the explored set.
*Expand node, add resulting nodes to the frontier if they aren’t already in the frontier or the explored set.

25
Q

What is Stack?

A

last-in first-out data type

26
Q

Which search algorithm uses stack?

A

Depth-First Search (DFS)

27
Q

A search algorithm that always expands the deepest node in the frontier. It exhausts each one direction before trying another direction.

A

Depth-first search (DFS)

28
Q

What are the Pros of using DFS?

A

At best, this algorithm is the fastest. If it “lucks out” and always chooses the right path to the solution (by chance), then depth-first search takes the least possible time to get to a solution.

29
Q

What are the cons of using DFS?

A
  • It is possible that the found solution is not optimal.
  • At worst, this algorithm will explore every possible path before finding the solution, thus taking the longest possible time before reaching the solution.
30
Q

A search algorithm that always expands the shallowest node in the frontier. It will follow multiple directions at the same time, taking one step in each possible direction before taking the second step in each direction.

A

Breadth-first search (BFS)

31
Q

What is queue?

A

first-in first-out data type

32
Q

Which search algorithm uses Queue?

A

Breadth-First Search (BFS)

33
Q

What are the Pros of using BFS?

A

This algorithm is guaranteed to find the optimal solution.

34
Q

What are the cons of using BFS?

A
  • This algorithm is almost guaranteed to take longer than the minimal time to run.
  • At worst, this algorithm takes the longest possible time to run.
35
Q

A search strategy that uses no problem specific knowledge. It does not utilize any knowledge about the problem that they did not acquire through their own exploration.

A

Uninformed Search Algorithms

36
Q

A search strategy that uses problem-specific knowledge to find solutions more efficiently. It considers additional knowledge to try to improve its performance.

A

Informed Search Algorithms

37
Q

A search algorithm that expands the node that is closest to the goal, as estimated by a heuristic function h(n)

A

Greedy Best-First Search

38
Q

It is a function that estimates how close to the goal the next node is.

A

heuristic function h(n)

39
Q

An algorithm can use a heuristic function that relies on the ______________________ between the possible nodes and the end of the maze. It ignores walls and counts how many steps up, down, or to the sides it would take to get from one location to the goal location.

A

Manhattan distance

40
Q

A search algorithm that expands node with lowest value of g(n) + h(n)
- g(n) = cost to reach node
- h(n) = estimated cost to goal

A

A* Search

41
Q

How will the A* Search be optimal?

A
  • h(n) is admissible (never overestimates the true cost), and
  • h(n) is consistent (for every node n and successor n’ with step cost c, h(n) ≤ h(n’) + c)
42
Q

The algorithm faces an opponent that tries to achieve the opposite goal.

A

Adversarial Search

43
Q

A type of algorithm in adversarial search, it represents winning conditions as (-1) for one side and (+) for the other side.

A

Minimax

44
Q

MAX (X) aims to?

A

Maximize score

45
Q

MIN (O) aims to?

A

Minimize score

Q

In a Tic-Tac-Toe game,

What does the following do?
* S0
* Player(s)
* Action(s)
* Results(s,a)
* Terminal(s)
* Utility(s)

very skippable bc niagi nanis search problems

A
  • S₀: Initial state (in our case, an empty 3X3 board)
  • Players(s): a function that, given a state s, returns which player’s turn it is (X or O).
  • Actions(s): a function that, given a state s, return all the legal moves in this state (what spots are free on the board).
  • Result(s, a): a function that, given a state s and action a, returns a new state. This is the board that resulted from performing the action a on state s (making a move in the game).
  • Terminal(s): a function that, given a state s, checks whether this is the last step in the game, i.e. if someone won or there is a tie. Returns True if the game has ended, False otherwise.
  • Utility(s): a function that, given a terminal state s, returns the utility value of the state: -1, 0, or 1.
47
Q

How does minimax work?

A
  • Recursively, the algorithm simulates all possible games that can take place beginning at the current state and until a terminal state is reached.
  • Each terminal state is valued as either (-1), 0, or (+1).
48
Q

In Minimax,

Given state s, how does MAX and MIN work?

A
  • MAX picks action a in ACTIONS(s) that produces highest value of MIN-VALUE(RESULT(s, a))
  • MIN picks action a in ACTIONS(s) that produces smallest value of MAX-VALUE(RESULT(s, a)
49
Q

function MAX-VALUE(s) code?

        return UTILITY(state) 
    v = -∞ 
    for action in ACTIONS(state): 
         v = MAX(v, MIN-VALUE(RESULT(state, action))) 
    return v
50
Q

function MIN-VALUE(s) code?

A 
function MIN-VALUE(state): 
    if TERMINAL(state): 
         return UTILITY(state) 
    v = ∞ 
    for action in ACTIONS(state): 
         v = MIN(v, MAX-VALUE(RESULT(state, action))) 
    return v
