Compulsivity as an endophenotype: the search for a hazy moving target

Efficient Incremental Search for Moving Target Search

Incremental search algorithms reuse information from previous searches to speed up the current search and are thus often able to find shortest paths for series of similar search problems faster than by solving each search problem independently from scratch. However, they do poorly on moving target search problems, where both the start and goal cells change over time. In this paper, we thus deve...

Optimal Whereabouts Search for a Moving Target

Moving Target Search

We consider the case of heuristic search where the location of the goal may change during the course of the search. For example, the goal may be a target that is actively avoiding the problem solver. We present a moving target search algorithm (MTS) to solve this problem. We prove that if the average speed of the target is slower than that of the problem solver, then the problem solver is guara...

the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

Optimal Solutions for Moving Target Search ( Extended

Moving target search or the game of cops and robbers has been given much attention during the last two decades. It is known that optimal solutions, given a n-cop-win graph, are computable in polynomial time in the size of the input graph. However, a first practical polytime algorithm was only given recently by Hahn et al. [3]. All other known approaches are learning and anytime algorithms that ...
