Contemporary optimal solving algorithms include dedicated search-based methods, that solve the problem directly, and compilation-based algorithms that reduce MAPF to a different formalism for which an efficient solver exists. In this paper, we enhance the existing Boolean satisfiability-based (SAT) algorithm for MAPF via using sparse decision diagrams representing the set of candidate paths for each agent, from which the target Boolean encoding is derived, considering more promising paths before the less promising ones are taken into account. Suggested sparse diagrams lead to a smaller target Boolean formulae that can be constructed and solved faster while optimality guarantees of the approach are kept. Specifically, considering the candidate paths sparsely instead of considering them all makes the SAT-based approach more competitive for MAPF on large maps.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"442 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116748283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under the formulation of planning as heuristic search, when a planner commits to an action, it re-roots its search tree at the node representing the outcome of that action. For the system to remain controlled, the planner must commit to a new action (perhaps a no-op) before the previously chosen action completes. This time pressure results in a real-time search. In this time-bounded setting, it can be beneficial to commit early, in order to perform more lookahead search focused below an upcoming state. In this paper, we propose a principled method for making this commitment decision. Our experimental evaluation shows that our scheme can outperform previously-proposed fixed strategies.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129918163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some applications pose additional restrictions, such as producing shortest (in the number of actions) among the cost-optimal plans, standard cost-optimal planning does not provide such a guarantee. We discuss two possible approaches to produce provably the shortest among the cost-optimal plans, one corresponding to an instantiation of cost-algebraic A∗, the other based on a cost transformation. We formally prove that the new cost-transformation method indeed produces the shortest among the cost-optimal plans and empirically compare the performance of the approaches in different configurations.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115611742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Often, such two agents operate in two separate environments and they can only meet at border locations. For example, a ship, sailing in the sea, needs to meet a truck traveling on land. These two agents are able to meet only at the shoreline. We call this problem the Meeting at the Border problem (MATB). In MATB, the optimal meeting location at the border is required, where the cost of a meeting location is the sum of the two shortest paths to that location. We show how to optimally solve MATB with heuristic search and suggest a novel heuristic function that estimates the cost of meeting at the border. Indeed, our new heuristic significantly enhances search algorithms in 2D and 3D domains.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"213 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115948514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The evacuation problem is modeled as a navigation of multiple agents in a known environment. The environment is divided into a danger and a safe zone while the task of agents is to move from the danger zone to the safe zone in a collision-free manner. Unlike previous approaches that model the environment as a discrete graph with agents placed in its vertices, at most one agent per vertex, our approach adopts various continuous aspects such as a grid-based embedding of the environment into 2D space and continuous line of sight of agents. In addition to this, we adopt hierarchical structure of our multi-agent system in which so called leading agents are more informed and are capable of performing multi-agent pathfinding (MAPF) via centralized algorithms like conflict-based search (CBS) while so called following agents with limited knowledge about other agents are modeled using simple local rules. Our experimental evaluation indicates that suggested hierarchical modeling approach can serve as a tool for studying the progress and the efficiency of evacuation processes in different environments.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"813 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132006552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then, the potentially conflicting agents create a joint policy for resolving the potential collision. \u0000We evaluated this policy experimentally on existing an MAPF benchmark, modified to include stochasticity.
