Shortest Monotone Descent Path Problem in Polyhedral Terrain
Given a polyhedral terrain with n vertices, the shortest monotone descent path problem deals with finding the shortest path between a pair of points, called source (s) and destination (t) such that the path is constrained to lie on the surface of the terrain, and for every pair of points p = (x(p), y(p), z(p)) and q = (x(q), y(q), z(q)) on the path, if dist(s,p) < dist(s, q) then z(p) z(q), whe...
متن کاملApproximate Shortest Descent Path on a Terrain
A path from a point s to a point t on the surface of a polyhedral terrain is said to be descent if for every pair of points p = (x(p), y(p), z(p)) and q = (x(q), y(q), z(q)) on the path, if dist(s, p) < dist(s, q) then z(p) ≥ z(q), where dist(s, p) denotes the distance of p from s along the aforesaid path. Although an efficient algorithm to decide if there is a descending path between two point...
متن کاملThe Stochastic Shortest Path Problem : A polyhedral combinatorics perspective
In this paper, we give a new framework for the stochastic shortest path problem in finite state and action spaces. Our framework generalizes both the frameworks proposed by Bertsekas and Tsitsiklis [7] and by Bertsekas and Yu [8]. We prove that the problem is well-defined and (weakly) polynomial when (i) there is a way to reach the target state from any initial state and (ii) there is no transi...
متن کاملShortest Path Problem with Gamma Probability Distribution Arc Length
We propose a dynamic program to find the shortest path in a network having gamma probability distributions as arc lengths. Two operators of sum and comparison need to be adapted for the proposed dynamic program. Convolution approach is used to sum two gamma probability distributions being employed in the dynamic program.
متن کاملThe shortest path problem
The shortest path problem is solved and applied to the calculations of half lives with respect to spontaneous fission of heavy nuclei. The dynamical programming method of Bellman and Kalaba is used to find the fission path in the d-dimensional space of deformation parameters. Fission half lives of heavy isotopes (100<Z<110) are shown and compared to the experimental data. 1. Introductory remark...
