The Boyer-Moore algorithm uses two pre-computed tables for searching a string: skip, which utilizes the occurrence heuristic of symbols in a pattern, and shift, which utilizes the...
In this paper, we introduce a new heuristic search algorithm based on mean values for anytime planning, called MHSP. It consists in associating the principles of UCT, a bandit-base...
