  2. Hill climbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_climbing

    In numerical analysis, hill climbing is a mathematical optimization technique which belongs to the family of local search. It is an iterative algorithm that starts with an arbitrary solution to a problem, then attempts to find a better solution by making an incremental change to the solution. If the change produces a better solution, another ...

  3. Min-conflicts algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min-conflicts_algorithm

    In fact, Constraint Satisfaction Problems that respond best to a min-conflicts solution do well where a greedy algorithm almost solves the problem. Map coloring problems do poorly with Greedy Algorithm as well as Min-Conflicts. Sub areas of the map tend to hold their colors stable and min conflicts cannot hill climb to break out of the local ...

  4. Motion planning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_planning

    For example, consider navigating a mobile robot inside a building to a distant waypoint. It should execute this task while avoiding walls and not falling down stairs. A motion planning algorithm would take a description of these tasks as input, and produce the speed and turning commands sent to the robot's wheels.

  5. Stairclimber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stairclimber

    Stairclimber wheels. A stairclimber is a type of trolley fitted with rotating wheels or tracks so that it can be pushed or pulled up or down steps or a stairway.Stairclimbers can be manual or battery-powered, and are commonly found in wheel, track, push arm or walker variants.

  6. Stochastic hill climbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_hill_climbing

    Stochastic hill climbing is a variant of the basic hill climbing method. While basic hill climbing always chooses the steepest uphill move, "stochastic hill climbing chooses at random from among the uphill moves; the probability of selection can vary with the steepness of the uphill move."

  8. Monkey and banana problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_and_banana_problem

    The example set of rules that CLIPS provides is somewhat fragile in that naive changes to the rulebase that might seem to a human of average intelligence to make common sense can cause the engine to fail to get the monkey to reach the banana. [3] Other examples exist using Rules Based System (RBS) a project implemented in Python. [4] [5]

  9. Nelder–Mead method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelder–Mead_method

    It is a direct search method (based on function comparison) and is often applied to nonlinear optimization problems for which derivatives may not be known. However, the Nelder–Mead technique is a heuristic search method that can converge to non-stationary points [ 1 ] on problems that can be solved by alternative methods.
