Study Notes
Traveling Salesman Problem
- The criterion for a solution in the traveling salesman problem is a tour that visits every city exactly once and returns to the starting city.
- Local search algorithms start with a randomly generated tour.
Hill Climbing Search
- Hill climbing continually moves towards states with higher values, seeking to find the best possible solution.
- One potential problem with hill climbing search is that it can get stuck in local optima, which are states that are better than their neighbors but not the global optimum.
- The success of hill climbing search depends on the smoothness of the landscape.
Games
- The most commonly studied games within AI are two-player, deterministic, perfect-information games, such as chess and Go.
- The synonym for 'fully observable' in the context of games is 'perfect information'.
- The optimal play strategy for deterministic, perfect-information games is to play perfectly, which means making the best possible move at every turn.
- A 'zero-sum' game is characterized by the fact that one player's gain is the other player's loss.
- A repeated game is a game that allows for infinitely repeating positions.
Knowledge-Based Agent
- Knowledge-based agents use knowledge to decide what actions to take.
- Logic is developed as a general class of representations to support knowledge-based agents.
Route-Finding Agent
- The main purpose of a route-finding agent's knowledge is to find the shortest path from one location to another.
Wumpus World
- Grabbing in the wumpus world refers to the action of picking up an object such as gold.
- 25% of environments in the wumpus world are considered utterly unfair.
System Building
- The approach to system building that involves encoding desired behaviors directly as program code is called 'hand-coding'.
- A single-player, deterministic, perfect-information game is characterized as being fully observable, episodic, static, discrete, and single-agent.
