State-Variable Planning Under Structural Restrictions: Algorithms and Complexity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Computationally tractable planning problems reported in the literature so far have almost exclusively been de ned by syntactical restrictions. To better exploit the inherent structure in problems, it is probably necessary to study also structural restrictions on the underlying state-transition graph. The exponential size of this graph, though, makes such restrictions costly to test. Hence, we propose an intermediate approach, using a state variable model for planning and de ning restrictions on the separate state-transition graphs for each state variable. We identify such restrictions which can tractably be tested and we present a planning algorithm which is correct and runs in polynomial time under these restrictions. The algorithm has been implemented an it outperforms Graphplan on a number of test instances. In addition, we present an exhaustive map of the complexity results for planning under all combinations of four previously studied syntactical restrictions and our ve new structural restrictions. This complexity map considers both the optimal and non-optimal plan generation problem.

Complexity Results for State-variable Planning under Mixed Syntactical and Structural Restrictions
Most tractable planning problems reported in the literature have been deened by syntactical restrictions. To better exploit the inherent structure of problems, however, it is probably necessary to study also structural restrictions on the state-transition graph. We present an exhaustive map of complexity results for state-variable planning under all combinations of our previously analysed synta...
متن کاملTractable Planning with State Variables by Exploiting Structural Restrictions
So far, tractable planning problems reported in the literature have been defined by syntactical restrictions. To better exploit the inherent structure in problems, however, it is probably necessary to study also structural restrictions on the state-transition graph. Such restrictions are typically computationally hard to test, though, since this graph is of exponential size. Hence, we take an i...
متن کاملA Family of Variable Step-Size Normalized Subband Adaptive Filter Algorithms Using Statistics of System Impulse Response
This paper presents a new variable step-size normalized subband adaptive filter (VSS-NSAF) algorithm. The proposed algorithm uses the prior knowledge of the system impulse response statistics and the optimal step-size vector is obtained by minimizing the mean-square deviation(MSD). In comparison with NSAF, the VSS-NSAF algorithm has faster convergence speed and lower MSD. To reduce the computa...
متن کاملA Complete Parameterized Complexity Analysis of Bounded Planning
The propositional planning problem is a notoriously difficult computational problem, which remains hard even under strong syntactical and structural restrictions. Given its difficulty it becomes natural to study planning in the context of parameterized complexity. In this paper we continue the work initiated by Downey, Fellows and Stege on the parameterized complexity of planning with respect t...
متن کاملParameterized Complexity Results for Plan Reuse
Planning is a notoriously difficult computational problem of high worst-case complexity. Researchers have been investing significant efforts to develop heuristics or restrictions to make planning practically feasible. Case-based planning is a heuristic approach where one tries to reuse previous experience when solving similar problems in order to avoid some of the planning effort. Plan reuse ma...
