Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Automated Planning and Scheduling Automated planning and scheduling is a subfield of artificial intelligence that focuses on the formulation of strategies or action sequences, often for the purpose of being carried out by intelligent agents, autonomous robots, and unmanned vehicles. Automated planning and scheduling is sometimes referred to as simply AI planning at times. In contrast to traditional control and classification problems, these problems have complicated solutions that need to be discovered and optimized in multidimensional space. Planning is closely connected to the philosophy of decision-making.

Download or read book Automated Planning written by Malik Ghallab and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-05-21 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automated planning technology now plays a significant role in a variety of demanding applications, ranging from controlling space vehicles and robots to playing the game of bridge. These real-world applications create new opportunities for synergy between theory and practice: observing what works well in practice leads to better theories of planning, and better theories lead to better performance of practical applications. Automated Planning mirrors this dialogue by offering a comprehensive, up-to-date resource on both the theory and practice of automated planning. The book goes well beyond classical planning, to include temporal planning, resource scheduling, planning under uncertainty, and modern techniques for plan generation, such as task decomposition, propositional satisfiability, constraint satisfaction, and model checking. The authors combine over 30 years experience in planning research and development to offer an invaluable text to researchers, professionals, and graduate students. Provides a thorough understanding of AI planning theory and practice, and how they relate to each other Covers all the contemporary topics of planning, as well as important practical applications of planning, such as model checking and game playing Presents case studies and applications in planning engineering, space, robotics, CAD/CAM, process control, emergency operations, and games Provides lecture notes, examples of programming assignments, pointers to downloadable planning systems and related information online

This book was released on 2016-10-08 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The annual ICAPS conference series was formed in 2003 through the merger of the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Planning and Scheduling and the European Conference on Planning. ICAPS continues the traditional high standards of AIPS and ECP as an archival forum for new research in the field of automated planning and scheduling. The 64 papers included in this volume were selected from a record 187 submissions, including submissions to special tracks in Robotics and Novel Applications. To review the papers, three international program committees were formed -- one for the main conference track, and one for each of the special tracks -- ensuring reviewers had relevant experience and applied relevant criteria to the papers submitted. The result is a broad range of papers representing the latest advances in the eld of automated planning and scheduling. Thee range of topics covered includes: search and constraint reasoning in planning and scheduling; probabilistic planning models and algorithms; integrated frameworks for planning, scheduling and execution; the use of learning methods; multiagent planning and scheduling; planning and scheduling for singleand multi-robot scenarios; and others, including the application of planning techniques to novel real-world problems.

This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning is the model-based approach to autonomous behavior where the agent behavior is derived automatically from a model of the actions, sensors, and goals. The main challenges in planning are computational as all models, whether featuring uncertainty and feedback or not, are intractable in the worst case when represented in compact form. In this book, we look at a variety of models used in AI planning, and at the methods that have been developed for solving them. The goal is to provide a modern and coherent view of planning that is precise, concise, and mostly self-contained, without being shallow. For this, we make no attempt at covering the whole variety of planning approaches, ideas, and applications, and focus on the essentials. The target audience of the book are students and researchers interested in autonomous behavior and planning from an AI, engineering, or cognitive science perspective.
