We present an optimal strategy for searching for a goal in a street which achieves the competitive factor of √ 2, thus matching the best lower bound known before. This finally settles an interesting open problem in the area of competitive path planning many authors have been working on.

Path planning for an autonomous vehicle can occur at two different times. First, path planning might occur at mission specification time when the vehicle’s initial path is determined and used to specify other mission factors. This task makes use of some model of the environment in planning a path that will avoid obstacles and hazardous areas. A second type of path planning might occur while the...

We also consider the problem of evaluation based on data collected both in the competitions and otherwise and examine some of the issues that arise in attempting to for...

We aim to find a winning strategy that determines the arguments a proponent should assert during a dialogue such that it will successfully persuade its opponent of some goal arguments, regardless of the strategy employed by the opponent. By restricting the strategies we consider for the proponent to what we call simple strategies and by modelling this as a planning problem, we are able to use a...
