When Planning Should Be Easy: On Solving Cumulative Planning Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with planning domains that appear in computer games, especially when modeling intelligent virtual agents. Some of these domains contain only actions with no negative effects and are thus treated as easy from the planning perspective. We propose two new techniques to solve the problems in these planning domains, a heuristic search algorithm ANA* and a constraint based planner RelaxPlan, and we compare them with the state of the art planners, that were successful in IPC, using planning domains motivated by computer games.

Multi-agent Planning An introduction to planning and coordination
Many day-to-day situations involve decision making: for example, a taxi company has some transportation tasks to be carried out, a large firm has to distribute a lot of complicated tasks among its subdivisions or subcontractors, and an air-traffic controller has to assign time slots to planes that are landing or taking off. Intelligent agents can aid in this decision-making process. Agents are ...
متن کاملReformulating Planning Problems by Eliminating Unpromising Actions
Despite a big progress in solving planning problems, more complex problems still remain hard and challenging for existing planners. One of the most promising research directions is exploiting knowledge engineering techniques such as (re)formulating the planning problem to be easier to solve for existing planners. In particular, it is possible to automatically gather knowledge from toy planning ...
متن کاملSolving a generalized aggregate production planning problem by genetic algorithms
This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) for solving a generalized model of single-item resource-constrained aggregate production planning (APP) with linear cost functions. APP belongs to a class of pro-duction planning problems in which there is a single production variable representing the total production of all products. We linearize a linear mixed-integer model of APP subject to hiring...

The passenger line planning is a process of strategic long-term decision-making problem in the field of railway passenger planning. A line is a route between starting point and destination with certain stops, which has a certain frequency of train schedule. A new solution based on decomposition algorithm has been proposed in this paper, which is defined in a master problem and two sub problems....
متن کاملA Probabilistic Analysis of Propositional STRIPS Planning
I present a probabilistic analysis of propositional STRIPS planning. The analysis considers two assumptions. One is that each possible precondition (likewise postcondition) of an operator is selected independently of other pre-and postconditions. The other is that each operator has a xed number of preconditions (likewise postconditions). Under both assumptions , I derive bounds for when it is h...
