Chapter 4, Problem 1E

Give the name of the algorithm that results from each of the following special cases:

  1. a. Local beam search with k = 1.
  2. b. Local beam search with one initial state and no limit on the number of states retained.
  3. c. Simulated annealing with T = 0 at all times (and omitting the termination test).
  4. d. Simulated annealing with T = ∞ at all times.
  5. e. Genetic algorithm with population size N = 1.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

a.

The local beam search with “k=1” is hill-climbing search.

b.

  • Local beam search with one initial state and no limit on the number of states retained resembles with Breadth-First search.
  • In breadth first search, before adding the next layer it adds one complete layer nodes.
  • Starting from one state, the algorithm would be essentially identical to breadth-first search except that each layer is generated all at once.

c.

Simulated annealing with “T=0” at all time:

  • There is a fact that termination step would be triggered immediately. Ignoring this fact, the search would be identical to first choice hill climbing.
  • This is because; every downward successor would be rejected with probability 1.

d.

Simulated annealing with “T = ∞” at all times is a random-walk search, it always accepts a new state.

e.

Generic algorithm with population size “N=1”:

  • The two selected parents will be same individual, if the population size is “1”.
  • The crossover yields an exact copy of individuals. Here, the mutation chance occurs.
  • Thus, the algorithm executes a random walk in the space of individuals.

I want to ask someone who has experiences in writing physics based simulation software. For context I am building a game engine, and want to implement physics simulation. There are a few approaches that I managed to find, but would like to know what are other approaches to doing physics simulation entry points from scenes, would you be able to visually draw me a few approaches (like 3 approaces)?When I say entry point to the actual physics simulation. An example of this is when the user presses the play button in the editor, it starts and initiates the physics system. Applying all of the global physics settings parameters that gets applied to that scene.Here is the use-case, I am looking for. If you have two scenes, and select scene 1. You press the play button. The physics simulation starts. When that physics simulation starts, you are also having to update the physics through some physics dedicated delta time because physics needs to happen faster update frequency.To elaborate, what…
