Hybrid Planning Heuristics Based on Task Decomposition Graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hybrid Planning combines Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning with concepts known from Partial-Order Causal-Link (POCL) planning. We introduce novel heuristics for Hybrid Planning that estimate the number of necessary modifications to turn a partial plan into a solution. These estimates are based on the task decomposition graph that contains all decompositions of the abstract tasks in the planning domain. Our empirical evaluation shows that the proposed heuristics can significantly improve planning performance.

A Hybrid Solution Approach Based on Benders Decomposition and Meta-Heuristics to Solve Supply Chain Network Design Problem
Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) is a strategic supply chain management problem that determines its configuration. This mainly focuses on the facilities location, capacity sizing, technology selection, supplier selection, transportation, allocation of production and distribution facilities to the market, and so on. Although the optimal solution of the SCND problem leads to a significant reduc...
متن کاملHybrid Algorithm for Multiprocessor Task Scheduling
Multiprocessors have become powerful computing means for running real-time applications and their high performance depends greatly on parallel and distributed network environment system. Consequently, several methods have been developed to optimally tackle the multiprocessor task scheduling problem which is called NPhard problem. To address this issue, this paper presents two approaches, Modifi...
متن کاملUsing Planning Graphs for Solving HTN Planning Problems
In this paper we present the GraphHTN algorithm, a hybrid planning algorithm that does Hierarchical Task-Network (HTN) planning using a combination of HTN-style problem reduction and Graphplan-style planning-graph generation. We also present experimental results comparing GraphHTN with ordinary HTN decomposition (as implemented in the UMCP planner) and ordinary Graphplan search (as implemented ...
متن کاملHybrid Planning - Theoretical Foundations and Practical Applications
The thesis presents a novel set-theoretic formalization of (propositional) hybrid planning – a planning framework that fuses Hierarchical Task Network (HTN) planning with Partial-Order Causal-Link (POCL) planning. Several sub classes thereof are identified that capture well-known problems such as HTN planning and POCL planning. For these problem classes, the complexity of the plan-existence pro...
متن کاملImplicit Abstraction Heuristics
State-space search with explicit abstraction heuristics is at the state of the art of costoptimal planning. These heuristics are inherently limited, nonetheless, because the size of the abstract space must be bounded by some, even if a very large, constant. Targeting this shortcoming, we introduce the notion of (additive) implicit abstractions , in which the planning task is abstracted by insta...
