MTPF is useful for planning a range of real-world vehicles, including rail trains and road convoys. MTPF is closely related to another coordination problem known as k-Robust Multi-Agent Path Finding (kR-MAPF). Although similar in principle, the performance of optimal MTPF algorithms in practice lags far behind that of optimal kR-MAPF algorithms. In this work, we revisit the connection between them and reduce the performance gap. First, we show that, in\u0000many cases, a valid kR-MAPF plan is also a valid MTPF plan, which leads to a new and faster approach for collision resolution. We also show that many recently introduced improvements for kR-MAPF, such as lower-bounding heuristics and symmetry reasoning, can be extended to MTPF. Finally, we explore a new type of pairwise symmetry specific to MTPF. Our experiments show that these improvements yield large efficiency gains for optimal MTPF.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"83 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":"116070096","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}

Bidirectional heuristic search algorithms have been around for a long time, but only recent advances have led to algorithms like BAE* that have the potential to outperform unidirectional heuristic search algorithms like A* in practice. In this work, we analyze BAE* for classical planning and the challenges associated with the underlying assumption of an explicit state representation. We show that it is crucial to use mutexes and reachability analysis to reduce the potentially exponential number of goal states, which makes it possible to create an explicit representation of a reversed planning task that can be used for the backward search of BAE*. Our empirical evaluation shows that BAE* solves more instances than A* in multiple domains with significantly fewer node expansions, demonstrating the usefulness of BAE* in planning.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"5 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":"128240932","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}

Given the bi-criteria nature of the problem (i.e., the presence of cost and weight), solutions to the Weight Constrained Shortest Path Problem (WCSPP) have some properties in common with bi-objective search. This paper leverages the state-of-the-art bi-objective search algorithm BOBA* and presents WC-BA*, an exact A*-based WCSPP method that explores the search space in different objective orderings bidirectionally. We also enrich WC-BA* with two novel heuristic tuning approaches that can significantly reduce the number of node expansions in the exhaustive search of A*. The results of our experiments on a large set of realistic problem instances show that our new algorithm solves all instances and outperforms the state-of-the-art WCSPP algorithms in various scenarios.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"1 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":"130289519","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}

Nevertheless, planning a safely traversable path through such an environment requires the ability to predict the outcomes of these interactions instead of avoiding them. One approach to doing this is to learn the interaction model offline based on collected data. Unfortunately, though, this requires large amounts of data and can often be brittle. Alternatively, models using physics-based simulators can generate large data and provide a reliable prediction. However, they are very slow to query online within the planning loop. This work proposes an algorithmic framework that utilizes the combination of a learned model and a physics-based simulation model for fast planning. Specifically, it uses the learned model as much as possible to accelerate planning while sparsely using the physics-based simulator to verify the feasibility of the planned path. We provide a theoretical analysis of the algorithm and its empirical evaluation showing a significant reduction in planning times.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"25 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":"121401264","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 Stochastic Shortest Path (SSP) with lexicographic preferences over multiple costs offers an expressive formulation for many practical problems.

We propose the first heuristic algorithm for this problem, based on the heuristic algorithm for Constrained SSPs. Our experiments show that our heuristic search algorithm can compute optimal policies while avoiding a large portion of the state space. We further analyze the theoretical properties of the problem, showing the conditions under which SSPs with lexicographic preferences have a proper optimal policy.","PeriodicalId":425645,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Combinatorial Search","volume":"14 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":"126871802","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}

Urban Traffic Control (UTC) deals with the control and management of traffic in urban regions, and includes the optimisation of traffic signals configuration to minimise traffic congestion and travel delays. In this paper, we briefly introduce how to cast the UTC problem into the formalism of planning with global state constraints, and we perform a preliminary experimental evaluation considering significant scenarios taken from the literature, and a new one based on real-world data.
