Download or read book Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Problem Solving Techniques written by Vlahavas, Ioannis and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2008-01-31 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important functions of artificial intelligence, automated problem solving, consists mainly of the development of software systems designed to find solutions to problems. These systems utilize a search space and algorithms in order to reach a solution. Artificial Intelligence for Advanced Problem Solving Techniques offers scholars and practitioners cutting-edge research on algorithms and techniques such as search, domain independent heuristics, scheduling, constraint satisfaction, optimization, configuration, and planning, and highlights the relationship between the search categories and the various ways a specific application can be modeled and solved using advanced problem solving techniques.
