{"product_id":"heuristic-search-stefan-edelkamp-9780123725127","title":"Heuristic Search: Theory and Applications","description":"\u003cp\u003eSearch has been vital to artificial intelligence from the very beginning as a core technique in problem solving. The authors present a thorough overview of heuristic search with a balance of discussion between theoretical analysis and efficient implementation and application to real-world problems. Current developments in search such as pattern databases and search with efficient use of external memory and parallel processing units on main boards and graphics cards are detailed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHeuristic search as a problem solving tool is demonstrated in applications for puzzle solving, game playing, constraint satisfaction and machine learning. While no previous familiarity with heuristic search is necessary the reader should have a basic knowledge of algorithms, data structures, and calculus. Real-world case studies and chapter ending exercises help to create a full and realized picture of how search fits into the world of artificial intelligence and the one around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefan Edelkamp, Stefan Schroedl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0123725127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780123725127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Morgan Kaufmann Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 712\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.50h x 7.70w x 1.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2011 pg. 213","brand":"Stefan Edelkamp","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44119383507199,"sku":"9780123725127","price":89.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f5365c0-ba67-44d9-9858-9a082fa7e208.jpg?v=1687409052","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/heuristic-search-stefan-edelkamp-9780123725127","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
