Searching with an autonomous robot
We discuss online strategies for visibility-based searching for an object hidden behind a corner, using Kurt3D, a real autonomous mobile robot. This task is closely related to a n...

Backtrack-Free Search for Real-Time Constraint Satisfaction
A constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) model can be preprocessed to ensure that any choices made will lead to solutions, without the need to backtrack. This can be especially usef...

Information-theoretic approaches to branching in search
Deciding what to branch on at each node is a key element of search algorithms. We present four families of methods for selecting what question to branch on. They are all informati...
