The Constrainedness Knife-Edge
A general rule of thumb is to tackle the hardest part of a search problem first. Many heuristics therefore try to branch on the most constrained variable. To test their effectiveness at this, we measure the constrainedness of a problem during search. We run experiments in several different domains, using both random and non-random problems. In each case, we observe a constrainedness "knlfe-edge...
متن کاملIs there a Constrainedness Knife-edge?
Recent work on search has identified an intriguing feature dubbed the constrainedness knife-edge by Walsh (Proc. AAAI98, 406–411) whereby overconstrained problems seem to become on average even more constrained as the search goes deeper, while underconstrained ones become less constrained. The present paper shows that while the knife-edge phenomenon itself is real, many of the claims that have ...
متن کاملReflections on the Knife Edge
INTRODUCTION The accompanying article, written by John Murphy, a retired lawyer and lifelong outdoorsman from his beloved Colorado Rockies, draws the striking parallel between his experiences as a mountain climber and as a patient with metastatic melanoma facing the hope and uncertainty of experimental therapy. Both are life-threatening circumstances, demanding courage and hope, and challenging...
متن کاملDerivation and validation of a sensitivity formula for knife-edge slit gamma camera: A theoretical and Monte Carlo simulation study
Introduction: Gamma cameras are proposed for online range verification and treatment monitoring in proton therapy. An Analytical formula was derived and validated for sensitivity of a slit collimator based on the photon fluence concept. Methods: Fluence formulation was generalized for photons distribution function and solved for high-energy point sources. The...
متن کاملCognitive Robotics: On the Semantic Knife-edge
This paper describes some aspects of recent and ongoing work in the area of Cognitive Robotics in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Imperial College. Our approach to Cognitive Robotics has been to apply abductive reasoning procedures using the Event Calculus, an extension to First Order Predicate Calculus (FOPC), to provide a unified view of several related mobile robot...
