Resumo

Planning is a long-standing area of Artificial Intelligence that aims to solve goal-directed tasks. Planning tasks have compact descriptions that generate exponentially larger state-spaces, and heuristic search algorithms are the most effective methods to solve them. In this work, we study heuristic search algorithms for planning tasks. First, we propose a hybrid memory-restricted heuristic search algorithm called PEA*+IDA* that outperforms algorithms of the same class. Second, we present a complete theoretical and experimental analysis of memory-restricted algorithms helping to better understand the landscape of this class of algorithms. Finally, we propose a new depth-first search algorithm for non-deterministic planning tasks that outperforms comparable algorithms.
