Need/Importance
• Machine learning techniques are used to automatically find the valuable underlying patt
erns within complex data that we would otherwise struggle to discover.
• The hidden patterns and knowledge about a problem can be used to predict future event
s and perform all kinds of complex decision making.
• Traditionally, software engineering combined human created rules with data to create
answers to a problem.
• Instead, machine learning uses data and answers to discover the rules behind a probl
em.
• To learn the rules governing a phenomenon, machines have to go through a learning pr
ocess, trying different rules and learning from how well they perform.
• Hence, why it’s known as Machine Learning.

21
Applications
1. Virtual Personal Assistants: Amazon Echo and Google Home, Siri, Alexa
2. Predictions while Commuting: Traffic Predictions, Weather Predictions
3. Videos Surveillance

Agenda of the lecture
• Problem Solving using Search Algorithms. Uninformed search algorit
hms: Depth-First Search

53
Problem Solving Technique By Search
• A ‘search’ refers to the search for a solution in a problem space.
• In general, searching refers to as finding information one needs.
• Searching is the most commonly used technique of problem solving in
artificial intelligence.
• Search proceeds with different types of ‘search control strategies’.
• The searching algorithm helps us to search for solution of a particular
problem.

54
Properties of Search Algorithms in AI
• Completeness: A search algorithm is said to be complete if it guarante
es to return a solution if at least any solution exists for any random in
put.
• Optimality: If a solution found for an algorithm is guaranteed to be th
e best solution (lowest path cost) among all other solutions, then suc
h a solution for is said to be an optimal solution.
• Time Complexity: Time complexity is a measure of time for an algorith
m to complete its task.
• Space Complexity: It is the maximum storage space required at any po
int during the search, as the complexity of the problem.
55
Type of Search Strategies
• Uninformed search (Also known as blind search) –Uninformed search
algorithms have no additional information on the goal node other tha
n the one provided in the problem definition
• Informed search ( Also known as heuristic search) – Search strategies
know whether one state is more promising than another.

56
Types of Search Algorithms

57
The Uninformed Search
Uninformed search algorithms have no additional information on the goal n
ode other than the one provided in the problem definition. The plans to re
ach the goal state from the start state differ only by the order and/or lengt
h of actions. Uninformed search is also called Blind search.
These types of algorithms will have:
▪ A problem graph, containing the start node S and the goal node G.
▪ A strategy, describing the manner in which the graph will be traversed to g
et to G.
▪ A fringe, which is a data structure used to store all the possible states (nod
es) that you can go from the current states.
▪ A tree that results while traversing to the goal node. A solution plan, whi
ch the sequence of nodes from S to G.

58
Depth First Search
• The DFS algorithm is a recursive algorithm that uses the idea of backtr
acking. It involves exhaustive searches of all the nodes by going ahead
, if possible, else by backtracking.
• Here, the word backtrack means that when you are moving forward a
nd there are no more nodes along the current path, you move backw
ards on the same path to find nodes to traverse. All the nodes will be
visited on the current path till all the unvisited nodes have been trave
rsed after which the next path will be selected.
• This recursive nature of DFS can be implemented using stacks.

59
DFS Contd..
• The basic idea is as follows:
• Pick a starting node and push all its adjacent nodes into a stack.
• Pop a node from stack to select the next node to visit and push all its
adjacent nodes into a stack.
• Repeat this process until the stack is empty.
However, ensure that the nodes that are visited are marked. This will
prevent you from visiting the same node more than once. If you do n
ot mark the nodes that are visited and you visit the same node more t
han once, you may end up in an infinite loop.

60
Example 1

NOTE:-Follow the dotted arrows to


determine the sequence.

61
Example 2

62
Points to Remember
• Time complexity: T(n)= 1+ n2+ n3 +.........+ nm =O(nm)
Where, m= maximum depth of any node
n= no. of nodes in each level
• Completeness: DFS will provide completeness feature when state spa
ce is finite
• Space complexity: DFS algorithm needs to store only single path from
the root node O (bm)
• Optimality: DFS is not optimal, meaning the number of steps in reachi
ng the solution, or the cost spent in reaching it is high.

63
Advantages of DFS

• Memory requirement is Linear with respect to Nodes.


• Less time and space complexity rather than BFS.
• Solution can be found out by without much more search.

64
Disadvantages of DFS
• Not guaranteed that it will give you solution.
• Cut-off depth is smaller so time complexity is more
• Determination of depth until the search has proceeds.

70
Breadth First Search
• In Breadth First Search(BFS), the root node of the graph is expanded first, then all
the successor nodes are expanded and then their successor and so on i.e. the nod
es are expanded level wise starting at root level.
• Breadth-first search (BFS) is an algorithm for traversing or searching tree or graph
data structures. It starts at the tree root (or some arbitrary node of a graph, some
times referred to as a ‘search key’), and explores all of the neighbor nodes at the
present depth prior to moving on to the nodes at the next depth level.
• BFS algorithm starts searching from the root node of the tree and expands all suc
cessor nodes at the current level before moving to nodes of next level.
• The breadth-first search algorithm is an example of a general-graph search algorit
hm.
• Breadth-first search implemented using FIFO queue data structure.

71
Example 1
• Path will traverse will be 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7
• Source node =0
• Destination node =7

72
Example 2
• S= source node
• K= destination node
• Path will be according to BFS
concept.
S---> A--->B---->C--->D---->G--->H--->
E---->F---->I---->K

73
Points to Remember
• Time Complexity: Time Complexity of BFS algorithm can be obtained by the
number of nodes traversed in BFS until the shallowest Node.
T (b) = 1+b2 +b3 +.......+ bd = O (bd )
Where, d= depth of shallowest solution
b = node at every state.
• Space Complexity: Space complexity of BFS algorithm is given by the Memo
ry size of frontier which is O(bd ).
• Completeness: BFS is complete, which means if the shallowest goal node is
at some finite depth, then BFS will find a solution.
• Optimality: BFS is optimal if path cost of all edges of tree/graph is same.

74
Advantages of BFS
• In this procedure at any way it will find the goal.
• It does not follow a single unfruitful path for a long time. It finds the
minimal solution in case of multiple paths.
• There is nothing like useless path in BFS, since it searches level by lev
el.

75
Disadvantages of BFS
• BFS consumes large memory space. Its time complexity is more.
• It has long pathways, when all paths to a destination are on approxim
ately the same search depth.

The Informed Search
• Informed search methods use knowledge about the problem domain and choose promis
ing operators first.
• These heuristic search methods use heuristic functions to evaluate the next state towar
ds the goal state.
For finding a solution, by using the heuristic technique, one should carry out the following
steps:-
1. Add domain—specific information to select what is the best path to continue searching al
ong
2. Define a heuristic function h(n) that estimates the ‗goodness‘ of a node n. Specifically, h(
n) = estimated cost(or distance) of minimal cost path from n to a goal state.
3. The term, heuristic means ‗serving to aid discovery‘ and is an estimate, based on domai
n specific information that is computable from the current state description of how close
we are to a goal.

81
Heuristics function:
• Heuristic is a function which is used in Inf
ormed Search, and it finds the most prom
ising path. It takes the current state of the
agent as its input and produces the estim

• Heuristic function estimates how close a
state is to the goal. 82

• Heuristics are knowledgeearch
about domain, which help search a

• Heuristic search incorporates domain knowledge to improve e

• Heuristic is a function that, when applied to a state, returns va
lue as estimated merit of state, with respect to goal.
• Heuristic evaluation function estimates likelihood of given stat

m)
Note: minimizing a ―”value” function v(n) is equivalent to maximizing –v(n), thus both n
otions are used interchangeably.
Hill climbing algorithm is a local search algorithm which continuously moves in the direc
tion of increasing elevation/value to find the peak of the mountain or best solution to the
problem. It terminates when it reaches a peak value where no neighbor has a higher val
ue.
• In this algorithm, we don't need to maintain and handle the search tree or graph as it onl
y keeps a single current state
• It is also called greedy local search as it only looks to its good immediate neighbor state
and not beyond that.
• A node of hill climbing algorithm has two components which are state and value.
• Hill Climbing is mostly used when a good heuristic is available.

84
Characteristics of Hill Climbi
ng:
• Generate and Test variant: It is variation
of a generate-and-test algorithm which di
scards all states which do not look promis
ing or seem unlikely to lead us to the goal
state. To take such decisions, it uses heur
istics (an evaluation function) which indic
ates how close the current state is to the
goal state. 85

• Greedy approach: Hill-climbing algorith

Related Terminology
• Local Maximum: Local maximum is a stat
e which is better than its neighbor states,
but there is also another state which is hi
gher than it.
• Global Maximum: Global maximum is the
best possible state of state space landsca
pe. It has the highest value of objective

fu
nction.
• Current state: It is a state in a landscape
Simple Hill Climbing
• It only evaluates the neighbor node sta
te at a time and selects the first one w
hich optimizes current cost and set it a
s a current state.
• It only checks it's one successor state, an
d if it finds better than the current state, th
en move else be in the same state. 88
Algorithm of Simple Hill Clim
bing:
Step 1: Define the current state as an initial state
Step 2: Loop until the goal state is achieved or no more operators can be applie
d on the current state:
a. Apply an operation to current state and get a new state
b. Compare the new state with the goal
c. Quit if the goal state is achieved
d. Evaluate new state with heuristic function and compare it with the current stat
e
e. If the newer state is closer to the goal compared to current state, update the c
urrent state
f. Else if not better than the current state, then return to step 2.
Step 3: Exit

89
Problems associated with Hill Cl
imbing Algorithm
Hill Climbing is a short sighted technique as it evaluates only immediate possibil
ities. So it may end up in few situations from which it can not pick any further
states. Let‘s look at these states and some solutions for them.
1. Local maximum: It‘s a state which is better than all neighbors, but there exis
ts a better state which is far from the current state; if local maximum occurs
within sight of the solution, it is known as ―foothills’
2. Plateau: In this state, all neighboring states have same heuristic values, so it‘
s unclear to choose the next state by making local comparisons
3. Ridge: It‘s an area which is higher than surrounding states, but it cannot be r
eached in a single move; for example, we have four possible directions to ex
plore (N, E, W, S) and an area exists in NE direction

90
Solutions
There are few solutions to overcome these
situations:
1. We can backtrack to one of the previo
us states and explore other directions
2. We can skip few states and make a jum
p in new directions
3. We can explore several directions
91 to fi
gure out the correct path
**Simulated Annealing **
• A hill-climbing algorithm which never makes a move towards a lower value g
uaranteed to be incomplete because it can get stuck on a local maximum. A
nd if algorithm applies a random walk, by moving a successor, then it may c
omplete but not efficient. Simulated Annealing is an algorithm which yields b
oth efficiency and completeness.
• In mechanical term Annealing is a process of hardening a metal or glass to a
high temperature then cooling gradually, so this allows the metal to reach a l
ow-energy crystalline state. The same process is used in simulated annealin
g in which the algorithm picks a random move, instead of picking the best m
ove. If the random move improves the state, then it follows the same path. O
therwise, the algorithm follows the path which has a probability of less than
1 or it moves downhill and chooses another path.

A* Algorithm
• A* is based on using heuristic methods to
achieve optimality and completeness, an
d is a variant of the best-first algorithm.
• When a search algorithm has the propert
y of optimality, it means it is guaranteed t
o find the best possible solution, in our ca
se the shortest path to the finish97 state. W
hen a search algorithm has the property o
f completeness, it means that if a solution
A* Algorithm Contd.
• Each time A* enters a state, it calculates the cost, f(n) (n being the
neighboring node), to travel to all of the neighboring nodes, and the
n enters the node with the lowest value of f(n).
f (n) = g (n) + h (n)
Where,
f(n) = Estimated cost of cheapest solution
g(n) = Cost to reach node n from initial state
h(n) = Cost to reach from node to goal node
• Typically, the A* algorithm is typically used for graphs and graph tra
versals. In terms of graphs, A* is used for finding the shortest path t
o a certain point from a given point.

98
Algorithm of A* search:
Step1: Place the starting node in the OPEN list.
Step 2: Check if the OPEN list is empty or not, if the list is empty then return fail
ure and stops.
Step 3: Select the node from the OPEN list which has the smallest value of eval
uation function (g+h), if node n is goal node then return success and stop, ot
herwise
Step 4: Expand node n and generate all of its successors, and put n into the clo
sed list. For each successor n', check whether n' is already in the OPEN or
CLOSED list, if not then compute evaluation function for n' and place into O
pen list.
Step 5: Else if node n' is already in OPEN and CLOSED, then it should be attac
hed to the back pointer which reflects the lowest g(n') value.
Step 6: Return to Step 2.

99
Points to Remember
• Completeness: A* algorithm is complete as long as:
a. Branching factor is finite.
b. Cost at every action is fixed.
• Optimal It is optimal when it follows two following condition
a. Admissible
b. Consistency
• Time Complexity :O(b^d)
b = branching factor
d = depth of solution
• Space Complexity :O(b^d)

100
Advantages
• It is complete and optimal.
• It is the best one from other techniques.
• It is used to solve very complex problems
.
• SIt is optimally efficient, i.e. there is no ot
her optimal algorithm guaranteed to expa
nd fewer nodes than A*. 101
Disadvantages:
• This algorithm is complete if the branchin
g factor is finite and every action has fixe
d cost.
• The main drawback of A* is memory requi
rement as it keeps all generated nodes in
the memory, so it is not practical for vario
us large-scale problems. 102

• In an AND-OR graph AO* algorithm is an efficient method to explor

• AO* algorithm works mainly based on two phases. First phase will f
ind a heuristic value for nodes and arcs in a particular level. The ch
anges in the values of nodes will be propagated back in the next ph
ase.
• In order to find solution in an AND-OR graph AO* algorithm works
well similar to best first search with an ability to handle the AND arc
appropriately. The algorithm finds an optimal path from initial node
by propagating the results like solution and change in heuristic valu

• The numbers at each node represent the value of f ' at that node (c

its components.
• With the available information till now , it appears that C is the most
promising node to expand since its f ' = 3 , the lowest but going thro

cost would be 9(3+4+1+1). Through B it would be 6(5+1).

• Game playing
– State of the art and resources
– Framework
• Game trees
– Minimax
– Alpha-beta pruning
Why study games?
• Clear criteria for success
• Offer an opportunity to study problems involving {hostile, adver
sarial, competing} agents.
• Historical reasons
• Fun
• Interesting, hard problems which require minimal “initial struct
ure”
• Games often define very large search spaces
– chess 35100 nodes in search tree, 1040 legal states
State of the art
• How good are computer game players?
– Chess:
• Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov in 1997
• Garry Kasparav vs. Deep Junior (Feb 2003): tie!

• http://www.cnn.com/2003/
Kasparov vs. X3D Fritz (November 2003): tie!

TECH/fun.games/11/19/kasparov.chess.ap/
– Checkers: Chinook (an AI program with a very large endgame database) is(?) the world cha
mpion.
– Go: Computer players are decent, at best
– Bridge: “Expert-level” computer players exist (but no world champions yet!)
• Good places to learn more:
– http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~games/
– http://www.cs.unimass.nl/icga
Chinook
• Chinook is the World Man-Machine Checkers Ch
ampion, developed by researchers at the Univers
ity of Alberta.
• It earned this title by competing in human tourna
ments, winning the right to play for the (human)
world championship, and eventually defeating th
e best players in the world.
• Visit http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~chinook/ to play
a version of Chinook over the Internet.
• The developers have fully analyzed the game of
checkers and have the complete game tree for it.
– Perfect play on both sides results in a tie.
• “One Jump Ahead: Challenging Human Suprema
cy in Checkers” Jonathan Schaeffer, University o
f Alberta (496 pages, Springer. $34.95, 1998).
Ratings of human and computer chess champions
Typical case
• 2-person game
• Players alternate moves
• Zero-sum: one player’s loss is the other’s gain
• Perfect information: both players have acces
s to complete information about the state of the
game. No information is hidden from either pla
yer.
• No chance (e.g., using dice) involved
• Examples: Tic-Tac-Toe, Checkers, Chess, Go,
Nim, Othello
• Not: Bridge, Solitaire, Backgammon, ...
How to play a game
• A way to play such a game is to:
– Consider all the legal moves you can make
– Compute the new position resulting from each m
ove
– Evaluate each resulting position and determine
which is best
– Make that move
– Wait for your opponent to move and repeat
• Key problems are:
– Representing the “board”
– Generating all legal next boards
– Evaluating a position
Evaluation function
• Evaluation function or static
evaluator is used to evaluate
the “goodness” of a game pos
ition.
– Contrast with heuristic search
where the evaluation function w
as a non-negative estimate of t
he cost from the start node to a
goal and passing through the gi
ven node
Evaluation function examples
• Example of an evaluation funct
ion for Tic-Tac-Toe:
f(n) = [# of 3-lengths open for me]
- [# of 3-lengths open for you]
where a 3-length is a complete ro
w, column, or diagonal
• Alan Turing’s function for ches
s
– f(n) = w(n)/b(n) where w(n) = su
m of the point value of white’s pi
Game trees
• Problem spaces for typical games are
represented as trees
• Root node represents the current
board configuration; player must decide
the best single move to make next
• Static evaluator function rates a board
position. f(board) = real number with
f>0 “white” (me), f<0 for black (you)
• Arcs represent the possible legal moves for a player
• If it is my turn to move, then the root is labeled a "MAX" node
; otherwise it is labeled a "MIN" node, indicating my opponen
t's turn.
• Each level of the tree has nodes that are all MAX or all MIN; n
odes at level i are of the opposite kind from those at level i+1
Minimax procedure
• Create start node as a MAX n
ode with current board config
uration
• Expand nodes down to some
depth (a.k.a. ply) of lookahea
d in the game
• Apply the evaluation function
at each of the leaf nodes
• “Back up” values for each of t
he non-leaf nodes until a valu

AI - Natural Language Processing
• Natural Language Processing (NLP) refers to AI method of communicating with
an intelligent systems using a natural language such as English.
• Processing of Natural Language is required when you want an intelligent syste
m like robot to perform as per your instructions, when you want to hear decisio
n from a dialogue based clinical expert system, etc.
• The field of NLP involves making computers to perform useful tasks with the na
tural languages humans use. The input and output of an NLP system can be −
• Speech
• Written Text

140
Components of NLP
• There are two components of NLP as given −
• Natural Language Understanding (NLU)
• Understanding involves the following tasks −
• Mapping the given input in natural language into useful representations.Analyzi
ng different aspects of the language.
• Natural Language Generation (NLG)
• It is the process of producing meaningful phrases and sentences in the form of
natural language from some internal representation.
• It involves −
• Text planning − It includes retrieving the relevant content from knowledge bas
e.
• Sentence planning − It includes choosing required words, forming meaningful
phrases, setting tone of the sentence.
• Text Realization − It is mapping sentence plan into sentence structure. 141
Applications of NLP
• There are the following applications of NLP -
• 1. Question Answering
• Question Answering focuses on building systems that automatically answer the
questions asked by humans in a natural language.
• Text and speech processing: This includes Speech recognition, text-&-speec
h processing, encoding(i.e converting speech or text to machine-readable lang
uage), etc.
• Text classification: This includes Sentiment Analysis in which the machine ca
n analyze the qualities, emotions, and sarcasm from text and also classify it acc
ordingly.
• Language generation: This includes tasks such as machine translation, summ
ary writing, essay writing, etc. which aim to produce coherent and fluent text.
• Language interaction: This includes tasks such as dialogue systems, voice 142 as
sistants, and chatbots, which aim to enable natural communication between hu
mans and computers.
Difficulties in NLU
• NL has an extremely rich form and structure.
• It is very ambiguous. There can be different levels of ambiguity −
• Lexical ambiguity − It is at very primitive level such as word-level.
• For example, treating the word “board” as noun or verb?
• Syntax Level ambiguity − A sentence can be parsed in different ways.
• For example, “He lifted the beetle with red cap.” − Did he use cap to lift the beet
le or he lifted a beetle that had red cap?
• Referential ambiguity − Referring to something using pronouns. For example,
Rima went to Gauri. She said, “I am tired.” − Exactly who is tired?
• One input can mean different meanings.
• Many inputs can mean the same thing.

Phases of NLP
There are the following five phases
of NLP:

150
Applications of NLP
• 1. Lexical Analysis and Morphological
• The first phase of NLP is the Lexical Analysis. This phase scans the source cod
e as a stream of characters and converts it into meaningful lexemes. It divides t
he whole text into paragraphs, sentences, and words.
• 2. Syntactic Analysis (Parsing)
• Syntactic Analysis is used to check grammar, word arrangements, and shows t
he relationship among the words.
• Example: Agra goes to the Poonam
• In the real world, Agra goes to the Poonam, does not make any sense, so this s
entence is rejected by the Syntactic analyzer.
• 3. Semantic Analysis
• Semantic analysis is concerned with the meaning representation. It mainly focu
ses on the literal meaning of words, phrases, and sentences.
151
4. Discourse Integration
Discourse Integration depends upo
n the sentences that proceeds it an
d also invokes the meaning of the
sentences that follow it.
5. Pragmatic Analysis
Pragmatic is the fifth and last phas
e of NLP. It helps you to discover t

Difficulties in NLU
• NL has an extremely rich form and structure.
• It is very ambiguous. There can be different levels of ambiguity −
• Lexical ambiguity − It is at very primitive level such as word-level.
• For example, treating the word “board” as noun or verb?
• Syntax Level ambiguity − A sentence can be parsed in different ways.
• For example, “He lifted the beetle with red cap.” − Did he use cap to lift the beet
le or he lifted a beetle that had red cap?
• Referential ambiguity − Referring to something using pronouns. For example,
Rima went to Gauri. She said, “I am tired.” − Exactly who is tired?
• One input can mean different meanings.
• Many inputs can mean the same thing.

Machine Learning Introduction
• Machine learning is the science of getting computers to realize a task without being
explicitly programmed.
• In other words, the big difference between classical and machine learning algorithms lies
in the way we define them.
• Classical algorithms are given exact and complete rules to complete a task.
• Machine learning algorithms are given general guidelines that define the model, along
with data.
• This data should contain the missing information necessary for the model to complete the
task.
• So, a machine learning algorithm can accomplish its task when the model has been adjust
ed with respect to the data.
• We say that we “fit the model on the data” or that “the model has to be trained on the
data.”
169
History
• Computers are used in almost all disciplines that include science, technology and medical
science etc.
• Computing techniques are used to find exact solutions of scientific problems. The solutio
ns are attempted on the basis of two valued logic and classical mathematics.
• However, all real life problems cannot be handled by conventional methods.
• Zadeh, who is known as the father of Fuzzy Logic has mentioned that humans are able to
resolve tasks of high complexity without measurement or computation.
• Hence the need arose for developing systems that work on Artificial Intelligence .
• Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the field that studies how machine can be made to act intelli
gently.The term "Artificial Intelligence" was coined by John McCarthy in 1956.
• Machine learning grew out of the quest for artificial intelligence when some researchers
were interested in having machines learn from data.The term machine learning was coine
d in 1959 by Arthur Samuel.

170
History
• AI became a field of research to build models and systems that act intelligently without h
uman intervention.
• In mid 1980s Zadeh focused on building systems or making computers think like humans
.
• For this purpose, the Machines’ ability to compute with numbers which is named as hard
computing has to be supplemented by an additional ability more similar to human thinkin
g which is named as soft computing.
• Soft computing is a term coined by Zadeh, combing a collection of computing techniques
, spanning many fields that fall under various categories in computational intelligence.
• Soft computing has three main branches, Fuzzy system, Evolutionary computation, Artifi
cial Neural computing which sub-sums Machine Learning.
• The guiding principle of soft computing is “Exploit the tolerance for imprecision, uncerta
inty and partial truth to achieve tractability, robustness and low solution cost”.
171
Need
• Machine learning techniques are used to automatically find the valuable underlying patter
ns within complex data that we would otherwise struggle to discover.
• The hidden patterns and knowledge about a problem can be used to predict future events
and perform all kinds of complex decision making.
• Traditionally, software engineering combined human created rules with data to create an
swers to a problem.
• Instead, machine learning uses data and answers to discover the rules behind a proble
m.
• To learn the rules governing a phenomenon, machines have to go through a learning pro
cess, trying different rules and learning from how well they perform.
• Hence, why it’s known as Machine Learning.

172
Applications
1. Virtual Personal Assistants: Amazon Echo and Google Home, Siri, Alexa
2. Predictions while Commuting: Traffic Predictions, Weather Predictions
3. Videos Surveillance
4. Social Media Services: People You May Know, Face Recognition, Similar Pins
5. Email Spam and Malware Filtering
6. Online Customer Support
7. Search Engine Result Refining
8. Product Recommendations
9. Online Fraud Detection

173
Scope
• Data Analysis: Machine Learning allows us to extract insights, patterns, and tre
nds from large datasets.
• Pattern Recognition: ML models can identify complex patterns and make accur
ate predictions.
• Automation: ML can automate tasks that are repetitive, time-consuming, or req
uire high precision.
• Personalization: ML models can personalize experiences and recommendation
s based on user preferences.
• Decision Making: ML models assist in making data-driven decisions by analyzin
g vast amounts of information.

174
Advantages
1. Easily identifies trends and patterns
Machine Learning can review large volumes of data and discover specific trends and patterns that would
not be apparent to humans.
2. No human intervention needed (automation)
With ML, you don’t need to babysit your project every step of the way. Since it means giving machines t
he ability to learn, it lets them make predictions and also improve the algorithms on their own.
3. Continuous Improvement
As ML algorithms gain experience, they keep improving in accuracy and efficiency. This lets them mak
e better decisions.
4. Handling multi-dimensional and multi-variety data
Machine Learning algorithms are good at handling data that are multi-dimensional and multi-variety, and
they can do this in dynamic or uncertain environments.
5. Wide Applications
It holds the capability to help deliver a much more personal experience to customers while also targeting
the right customers.
175
Limitations
1. Data Acquisition
Machine Learning requires massive data sets to train on, and these should be inclusive/unbiased, and of g
ood quality. There can also be times where they must wait for new data to be generated.
2. Time and Resources
ML needs enough time to let the algorithms learn and develop enough to fulfill their purpose with a consi
derable amount of accuracy and relevancy. It also needs massive resources to function. This can mean ad
ditional requirements of computer power for you.
3. Interpretation of Results
Another major challenge is the ability to accurately interpret results generated by the algorithms. You mu
st also carefully choose the algorithms for your purpose.
4. High error-susceptibility
Suppose you train an algorithm with data sets small enough to not be inclusive. You end up with biased p
redictions coming from a biased training set. This leads to irrelevant advertisements being displayed to cu
stomers.
In the case of ML, such blunders can set off a chain of errors that can go undetected for long periods of ti
me. And when they do get noticed, it takes quite some time to recognize the source of the issue, and even
longer to correct it. 176

Regression

• Regression is a supervised learning technique used for predicting continuous o


r real-valued output based on input features. It aims to establish a relationship
between the independent variables (inputs) and the dependent variable (output
) by fitting a mathematical function or model to the training data.
• .

182
Key Concepts in Regression
Dependent Variable: The variable being predicted or estimated based on the independen
t variables.Independent Variables: The input features or predictors used to predict the
dependent variable.Training Data: Labeled data consisting of input-output pairs used
to train the regression model.
• Regression Model: The mathematical function or algorithm used to model the relation
ship between the independent and dependent variables.
• Common Types of Regression Models:
• Linear Regression:
• Linear regression assumes a linear relationship between the independent and depen
dent variables.It fits a line (in simple linear regression) or a hyperplane (in multiple lin
ear regression) to the data.The goal is to minimize the sum of squared errors betwee
n the predicted and actual values.
• Polynomial Regression:
• Polynomial regression extends linear regression by introducing 183 polynomial terms of hi
gher degrees. It can capture non-linear relationships between variables by fitting a po
lynomial curve to the data.
Regression
• Ridge Regression:
Ridge regression is a regularization technique used to address overfitting in linear
regression.It adds a penalty term to the loss function, which controls the compl
exity of the model and helps prevent large coefficient values.
• Lasso Regression:
• Lasso regression is another regularization technique that adds a penalty term t
o the loss function.It not only reduces overfitting but also performs feature selec
tion by shrinking some coefficients to zero.
• Logistic Regression:
• Despite its name, logistic regression is a classification algorithm often used for
binary classification problems.It models the probability of the outcome using a l
ogistic function and applies a threshold to make predictions
184
Regression
• Support Vector Regression (SVR):
• SVR is a variant of support vector machines (SVM) adapted for regression task
s.It finds a hyperplane that maximizes the margin around the predicted values
while allowing a certain degree of error.
• Decision Tree Regression:
• Decision tree regression builds a tree-like model where each internal node repr
esents a decision based on a feature, and each leaf node represents the predic
ted value.It recursively splits the data based on the values of the features to ma
ke predictions.
• Random Forest Regression:
• Random forest regression is an ensemble method that combines multiple decis
ion tree regressors.
• It averages or combines the predictions from individual trees to obtain the final
prediction.
185
Regression:
• Gradient Boosting Regression:
• Gradient boosting regression is another ensemble technique that builds models in a sequential
manner. It combines weak learners (typically decision trees) and focuses on correcting the mist
akes made by previous models.
• Regression Evaluation Metrics:
• To assess the performance of regression models, several evaluation metrics are commonly use
d, including:
• Mean Squared Error (MSE): Measures the average squared difference between the predicted a
nd actual values.
• Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE): The square root of the MSE, providing a measure of the av
erage prediction error in the original scale of the data.
• Mean Absolute Error (MAE): Measures the average absolute difference between the predicted
and actual values.
• R-squared (Coefficient of Determination): Indicates the proportion of the variance in the depend
ent variable explained by the regression model.
• Adjusted R-squared: Similar to R-squared, but adjusted for the number 186
of predictors in the mod
el.
• Mean Squared Logarithmic Error (MSLE): Measures the average logarithmic difference betwee
n the predicted and actual values, useful for skewed or exponential distributions. Regression

ML model

• Supervised Learning: ML models learn from labeled training data to make predi
ctions or classify new examples.
• Unsupervised Learning: ML models find patterns and relationships in unlabeled
data without specific guidance.
• Reinforcement Learning: ML models learn by interacting with an environment a
nd receiving feedback in the form of rewards or penalties.
• Deep Learning: ML models inspired by the structure and function of the human
brain, known as artificial neural networks, capable of processing complex patter
ns.

206
Terminology
• Dataset: A set of data examples, that contain features important to solving the pro
blem.
• Feature: With respect to a dataset, a feature represents an attribute and value com
bination. Colour is an attribute. “Colour is blue” is a feature.
• Model : A data structure that stores a representation of a dataset (weights and bias
es). Models are created/learned when you train an algorithm on a dataset.
• Noise :Any irrelevant information or randomness in a dataset which obscures the u
nderlying pattern.
• Outlier :An observation that deviates significantly from other observations in the
dataset.
• Test set: A set of observations used at the end of model training and validation to
assess the predictive power of your model. How generalizable is your model to un
seen data?
207
• Training set : A set of observations used to train machine learning models.
Process
• Data Collection: Collect the data that the algorithm will learn from.

• Data Preparation: Format and arrange the data into the optimal format, extracting impor
tant features and performing dimensionality reduction.

• Training: Also known as the fitting stage, this is where the Machine Learning algorithm
actually learns by showing it the data that has been collected and prepared.

• Evaluation: Test the model to see how well it performs.

• Tuning: Fine tune the model to maximise it’s performance.

208
Approaches
• Supervised Learning

• Unsupervised Learning

• Semi-supervised Learning

• Reinforcement Learning

209
Supervised Learning
• In supervised learning, the goal is to learn the mapping (the rules) between a set of inpu
ts and outputs.
• For example, the inputs could be the weather forecast, and the outputs would be the visito
rs to the beach.
• The goal in supervised learning would be to learn the mapping that describes the relati
onship between temperature with other weather conditions and number of beach visitors.
• So here number of visitors (dependent variable) will be dependent on weather conditions
(independent variable).

• Example labelled data is provided of past input and output pairs during the learning pr
ocess to teach the model how it should behave, hence, called ‘supervised’ learning.
• For the beach example, new inputs can then be fed in of forecast temperature and the Ma
chine learning algorithm will then output a future prediction for the number of visitors.
210
Supervised Learning
• Being able to adapt to new inputs and make predictions is the crucial generalisation part
of machine learning.
• In training, we want to maximise generalisation, so the supervised model defines the real
‘general’ underlying relationship.
• If the model is over-trained, we cause over-fitting to the examples used and the model w
ould be unable to adapt to new, previously unseen inputs.
• A side effect to be aware of in supervised learning that the supervision we provide introd
uces bias to the learning.
• The model can only be imitating exactly what it was shown, so it is very important to sh
ow it reliable, unbiased examples.
• Also, supervised learning usually requires a lot of data before it learns.
• Obtaining enough reliably labelled data is often the hardest and most expensive part of
using supervised learning. 211
Supervised Learning
• The output from a supervised Machine Learning model could be a category from a finite
set e.g [low, medium, high] for the number of visitors to the beach.
• This is called classification problem.

• The output from a supervised Machine Learning model could be a numeric value from a
finite set e.g [500-2000] for the number of visitors to the beach.
• This is called regression problem.

• Supervised learning is of two types: Classification and Regression.

212
Supervised Learning-Classificati
• Classification is used to group the similaron
data points into different sections in order to cl
assify them.
• Machine Learning is used to find the rules that explain how to separate the different data
points.
• They all focus on using data and answers to discover rules that linearly separate data
points.
• Linear separability is a key concept in machine learning.
• Classification approaches try to find the best way to separate data points with a line.
• The lines drawn between classes are known as the decision boundaries.
• The entire area that is chosen to define a class is known as the decision surface.
• The decision surface defines that if a data point falls within its boundaries, it will be assi
gned a certain class.
213
Supervised Learning-Classificati
• Binary Classification on CLASS 1

• Multi-Class Classification
• Multi-Label Classification
CLASS 2
• Imbalanced Classification

LINEAR SEPERABLE

214
Binary Classification
• Binary Classification refers to those classification tasks that have two class labels.
• Example: Email spam detection (spam or not).

• Typically, binary classification tasks involve one class that is the normal state and another
class that is the abnormal state.
• For example “not spam” is the normal state and “spam” is the abnormal state.

• Another example is “cancer not detected” is the normal state of a task that involves a me
dical test and “cancer detected” is the abnormal state.

• The class for the normal state is assigned the class label 0 and the class with the abnormal
state is assigned the class label 1.
215
Multi-Class Classification
• Multi-Class Classification refers to those classification tasks that have more than two cl
ass labels.
• Examples include:
• Face classification.
• Plant species classification.
• Optical character recognition.

• Examples are classified as belonging to one among a range of known classes.

• The number of class labels may be very large on some problems.


• For example, a model may predict a photo as belonging to one among thousands or tens o
f thousands of faces in a face recognition system.
216
Multi-Label Classification
• Multi-Label Classification refers to those classification tasks that have two or more clas
s labels, where one or more class labels may be predicted for each example.

• Consider the example of photo classification, where a given photo may have multiple obj
ects in the scene and a model may predict the presence of multiple known objects in the p
hoto, such as “bicycle,” “apple,” “person,” etc.

• This is unlike binary classification and multi-class classification, where a single class lab
el is predicted for each example.

217
Imbalanced Classification
• Imbalanced Classification refers to classification tasks where the number of examples i
n each class is unequally distributed.
• Typically, imbalanced classification tasks are binary classification tasks where the majorit
y of examples in the training dataset belong to the normal class and a minority of exampl
es belong to the abnormal class.

• Examples include:
• Fraud detection.
• Outlier detection.
• Medical diagnostic tests.

218
Supervised Learning-Regression
• The difference between classification and re CLASS 1

gression is that regression outputs a numbe


r rather than a class.
CLASS 2

• Therefore, regression is useful when predict


ing number based problems like stock mark
et prices, the temperature for a given day, or
the probability of an event.

219
Unsupervised Learning
• In unsupervised learning, only input data is provided in the examples.
• There are no labelled example outputs to aim for.
• But it may be surprising to know that it is still possible to find many interesting and comp
lex patterns hidden within data without any labels.
• An example of unsupervised learning in real life would be sorting different colour coins i
nto separate piles. Nobody taught you how to separate them, but by just looking at their f
eatures such as colour, you can see which colour coins are associated and cluster them in
to their correct groups.

• Unsupervised learning can be harder than supervised learning, as the removal of supervisi
on means the problem has become less defined. The algorithm has a less focused idea of
what patterns to look for.
220
Unsupervised Learning
• Unsupervised machine learning finds all kind of unknown patterns in data.
• Unsupervised methods help you to find features which can be useful for categorization.
• It is taken place in real time, so all the input data to be analyzed and labeled in the presen
ce of learners.
• It is easier to get unlabeled data from a computer than labeled data, which needs manual i
ntervention.

• Unsupervised Learning is of two types: Clustering and Association.

221
Unsupervised Learning-Clusteri
• Unsupervised learning is mostly used forng
clustering.
• Clustering is the act of creating groups with differing characteristics.
• Clustering attempts to find various subgroups within a dataset.
• As this is unsupervised learning, we are not restricted to any set of labels and are free to c
hoose how many clusters to create.
• This is both a blessing and a curse.
• Picking a model that has the correct number of clusters (complexity) has to be conducted
via an empirical model selection process.

222
Unsupervised Learning-Associat
ionthe rules that describe your data.
• In Association Learning you want to uncover
• For example, if a person watches video A they will likely watch video B.

• Association rules are perfect for examples such as this where you want to find related ite
ms.

• Common example is Market Basket Analysis:


• Market Basket Analysis is one of the key techniques used by large retailers to uncover associations bet
ween items. It works by looking for combinations of items that occur together frequently in transaction
s. To put it another way, it allows retailers to identify relationships between the items that people buy.
• Association Rules are widely used to analyze retail basket or transaction data, and are intended to ident
ify strong rules discovered in transaction data using measures of interestingness, based on the concept
of strong rules.
223
Semi-supervised Learning
• Semi-supervised learning is a mix between supervised and unsupervised approaches.
• The learning process isn’t closely supervised with example outputs for every single input,
but we also don’t let the algorithm do its own thing and provide no form of feedback.
• Semi-supervised learning takes the middle road.
• By being able to mix together a small amount of labelled data with a much larger unl
abeled dataset it reduces the burden of having enough labelled data.
• Therefore, it opens up many more problems to be solved with machine learning.
• Example:
• Internet Content Classification: Labeling each webpage is an impractical and unfeasibl
e process and thus uses Semi-Supervised learning algorithms. Even the Google search alg
orithm uses a variant of Semi-Supervised learning to rank the relevance of a webpage for
a given query.
224
Reinforcement Learning
• In this approach, occasional positive and negative feedback is used to reinforce behavi
ours.
• Think of it like training a dog, good behaviours are rewarded with a treat and become mo
re common. Bad behaviours are punished and become less common.
• This reward-motivated behaviour is key in reinforcement learning.
• It is less common and much more complex, but it has generated incredible results.
• It doesn’t use labels as such, and instead uses rewards to learn.

225
Reinforcement Learning
• This is very similar to how we as humans also learn.
• Throughout our lives, we receive positive and negative signals and constantly learn from
them.
• The chemicals in our brain are one of many ways we get these signals.
• When something good happens, the neurons in our brains provide a hit of positive neurotr
ansmitters such as dopamine which makes us feel good and we become more likely to re
peat that specific action.
• We don’t need constant supervision to learn like in supervised learning.
• By only giving the occasional reinforcement signals, we still learn very effectively.

226
Reinforcement Learning
• One of the most exciting parts of Reinforcement Learning is that is a first step away from
training on static datasets, and instead of being able to use dynamic, noisy data-rich envi
ronments.
• This brings Machine Learning closer to a learning style used by humans. The world is si
mply our noisy, complex data-rich environment.
• Games are very popular in Reinforcement Learning research. They provide ideal data-ric
h environments.
• The scores in games are ideal reward signals to train reward-motivated behaviours. Additi
onally, time can be sped up in a simulated game environment to reduce overall training ti
me.
• A Reinforcement Learning algorithm just aims to maximise its rewards by playing the
game over and over again. If you can frame a problem with a frequent ‘score’ as a rewar
d, it is likely to be suited to Reinforcement Learning.

232
Problem Solving Technique By
Search
• A ‘search’ refers to the search for a solution in a problem sp
ace.
• In general, searching refers to as finding information one ne
eds.
• Searching is the most commonly used technique of problem
solving in artificial intelligence.
• Search proceeds with different types of ‘search control strate
gies’.
• The searching algorithm helps us to search for solution of a
particular problem.

233
Properties of Search Algorith
ms in AI
• Completeness: A search algorithm is said
to be complete if it guarantees to return a
solution if at least any solution exists for a
ny random input.
• Optimality: If a solution found for an algori
thm is guaranteed to be the best solution
(lowest path cost) among all other solutio
234
ns, then such a solution for is said to be a
n optimal solution.
Type of Search Strategies
• Uninformed search (Also known as blind sea
rch) –Uninformed search algorithms have no
additional information on the goal node other
than the one provided in the problem definiti
on
• Informed search ( Also known as heuristic se
arch) – Search strategies know whether one
state is more promising than another.

236
The Uninformed Search
Uninformed search algorithms have no additional information on the goal node
other than the one provided in the problem definition. The plans to reach the
goal state from the start state differ only by the order and/or length of actions
. Uninformed search is also called Blind search.
These types of algorithms will have:
§ A problem graph, containing the start node S and the goal node G.
§ A strategy, describing the manner in which the graph will be traversed to get
to G.
§ A fringe, which is a data structure used to store all the possible states (node
s) that you can go from the current states.
§ A tree that results while traversing to the goal node. A solution plan, which
the sequence of nodes from S to G.

237
Breadth First Search
• In Breadth First Search(BFS), the root node of the graph is expanded first, t
hen all the successor nodes are expanded and then their successor and so
on i.e. the nodes are expanded level wise starting at root level.
• Breadth-first search (BFS) is an algorithm for traversing or searching tree or
graph data structures. It starts at the tree root (or some arbitrary node of a gr
aph, sometimes referred to as a ‘search key’), and explores all of the neighb
or nodes at the present depth prior to moving on to the nodes at the next de
pth level.
• BFS algorithm starts searching from the root node of the tree and expands a
ll successor nodes at the current level before moving to nodes of next level.
• The breadth-first search algorithm is an example of a general-graph search
algorithm.
• Breadth-first search implemented using FIFO queue data structure.

238
Example 1
• Path will traverse will be 0-1-2-3-4-5-6-7
• Source node =0
• Destination node =7

239
Example 2
• S= source node
• K= destination node
• Path will be according to BFS
concept.
S---> A--->B---->C--->D---->G--->H--->
E---->F---->I---->K
240
Points to Remember
• Time Complexity: Time Complexity of BFS algorithm can be obtained by the
number of nodes traversed in BFS until the shallowest Node.
T (b) = 1+b2 +b3 +.......+ bd = O (bd )
Where, d= depth of shallowest solution
b = node at every state.
• Space Complexity: Space complexity of BFS algorithm is given by the Mem
ory size of frontier which is O(bd ).
• Completeness: BFS is complete, which means if the shallowest goal node is
at some finite depth, then BFS will find a solution.
• Optimality: BFS is optimal if path cost of all edges of tree/graph is same.

241
Advantages of BFS
• In this procedure at any way it will find the
goal.
• It does not follow a single unfruitful path f
or a long time. It finds the minimal solutio
n in case of multiple paths.
• There is nothing like useless path in BFS
, since it searches level by level.
242
Disadvantages of BFS
• BFS consumes large memory space. Its ti
me complexity is more.
• It has long pathways, when all paths to a
destination are on approximately the sam
e search depth.

243
Depth First Search
• The DFS algorithm is a recursive algorithm that uses the ide
a of backtracking. It involves exhaustive searches of all the
nodes by going ahead, if possible, else by backtracking.
• Here, the word backtrack means that when you are moving f
orward and there are no more nodes along the current path,
you move backwards on the same path to find nodes to trav
erse. All the nodes will be visited on the current path till all th
e unvisited nodes have been traversed after which the next
path will be selected.
• This recursive nature of DFS can be implemented using stac
ks.

244
DFS Contd..
• The basic idea is as follows:
• Pick a starting node and push all its adjac
ent nodes into a stack.
• Pop a node from stack to select the next
node to visit and push all its adjacent nod
es into a stack.
• Repeat this process until the stack
245 is emp
ty.
However, ensure that the nodes that are
Example 1

NOTE:-Follow the dotted arrows


to determine the sequence.

246
Example 2

247
Points to Remember
• Time complexity: T(n)= 1+ n2+ n3 +.........+ nm =O(nm)
Where, m= maximum depth of any node
n= no. of nodes in each level
• Completeness: DFS will provide completeness feature whe
n state space is finite
• Space complexity: DFS algorithm needs to store only singl
e path from the root node O (bm)
• Optimality: DFS is not optimal, meaning the number of step
s in reaching the solution, or the cost spent in reaching it is h
igh.

248
Advantages of DFS
• Memory requirement is Linear with respe
ct to Nodes.
• Less time and space complexity rather th
an BFS.
• Solution can be found out by without muc
h more search.
249
Disadvantages of DFS
• Not guaranteed that it will give you solutio
n.
• Cut-off depth is smaller so time complexit
y is more
• Determination of depth until the search h
as proceeds.
250
The Informed Search
• Informed search methods use knowledge about the problem domain and choose promis
ing operators first.
• These heuristic search methods use heuristic functions to evaluate the next state towar
ds the goal state.
For finding a solution, by using the heuristic technique, one should carry out the following
steps:-
1. Add domain—specific information to select what is the best path to continue searching al
ong
2. Define a heuristic function h(n) that estimates the ‗goodness‘ of a node n. Specifically, h(
n) = estimated cost(or distance) of minimal cost path from n to a goal state.
3. The term, heuristic means ‗serving to aid discovery‘ and is an estimate, based on domai
n specific information that is computable from the current state description of how close
we are to a goal.

251
Heuristics function:
• Heuristic is a function which is used in Informed
Search, and it finds the most promising path. It t
akes the current state of the agent as its input a
nd produces the estimation of how close agent i
s from the goal.
• Heuristic function estimates how close a state is
to the goal.
• It is represented by h(n), and it calculates the co
st of an optimal path between the pair of states.
252
Characteristics of heuristic s
• Heuristics are knowledgeearch
about domain, which help search a
nd reasoning in its domain.
• Heuristic search incorporates domain knowledge to improve e
fficiency over blind search.
• Heuristic is a function that, when applied to a state, returns va
lue as estimated merit of state, with respect to goal.
• Heuristic evaluation function estimates likelihood of given stat
e leading to goal state.
• Heuristic search function estimates cost from current state to
goal, presuming function is efficiency

253
Hill Climbing Algorithm(Gradi
ent Ascent/ Descent Algorith
• Iteratively maximize ―”value” of current state, by replacing it by successor state that ha
s highest value, as long as possible.


m)
Note: minimizing a ―”value” function v(n) is equivalent to maximizing –v(n), thus both n
otions are used interchangeably.
Hill climbing algorithm is a local search algorithm which continuously moves in the direc
tion of increasing elevation/value to find the peak of the mountain or best solution to the
problem. It terminates when it reaches a peak value where no neighbor has a higher val
ue.
• In this algorithm, we don't need to maintain and handle the search tree or graph as it onl
y keeps a single current state
• It is also called greedy local search as it only looks to its good immediate neighbor state
and not beyond that.
• A node of hill climbing algorithm has two components which are state and value.
• Hill Climbing is mostly used when a good heuristic is available.

254
Characteristics of Hill Climbi
ng: It is variation of a gener
• Generate and Test variant:
ate-and-test algorithm which discards all states whic
h do not look promising or seem unlikely to lead us t
o the goal state. To take such decisions, it uses heuri
stics (an evaluation function) which indicates how clo
se the current state is to the goal state.
• Greedy approach: Hill-climbing algorithm search m
oves in the direction which optimizes the cost.
• No backtracking: It does not back track the search
space, as it does not remember the previous states.

Related Terminology
• Local Maximum: Local maximum is a state which is better than its n
eighbor states, but there is also another state which is higher than i
t.
• Global Maximum: Global maximum is the best possible state of stat
e space landscape. It has the highest value of objective function.
• Current state: It is a state in a landscape diagram where an agent i
s currently present.
• Flat local maximum: It is a flat space in the landscape where all the
neighbor states of current states have the same value.
• Shoulder: It is a plateau region which has an uphill edge.

257
Simple Hill Climbing
• It only evaluates the neighbor node sta
te at a time and selects the first one w
hich optimizes current cost and set it a
s a current state.
• It only checks it's one successor state, an
d if it finds better than the current state, th
en move else be in the same state.
258
Algorithm of Simple Hill Clim
bing:
Step 1: Define the current state as an initial state
Step 2: Loop until the goal state is achieved or no more operators can be applie
d on the current state:
a. Apply an operation to current state and get a new state
b. Compare the new state with the goal
c. Quit if the goal state is achieved
d. Evaluate new state with heuristic function and compare it with the current stat
e
e. If the newer state is closer to the goal compared to current state, update the c
urrent state
f. Else if not better than the current state, then return to step 2.
Step 3: Exit

259
Problems associated with Hill Cl
imbing Algorithm
Hill Climbing is a short sighted technique as it evaluates only immediate possibil
ities. So it may end up in few situations from which it can not pick any further
states. Let‘s look at these states and some solutions for them.
1. Local maximum: It‘s a state which is better than all neighbors, but there exis
ts a better state which is far from the current state; if local maximum occurs
within sight of the solution, it is known as ―foothills’
2. Plateau: In this state, all neighboring states have same heuristic values, so it‘
s unclear to choose the next state by making local comparisons
3. Ridge: It‘s an area which is higher than surrounding states, but it cannot be r
eached in a single move; for example, we have four possible directions to ex
plore (N, E, W, S) and an area exists in NE direction

260
Solutions
There are few solutions to overcome these
situations:
1. We can backtrack to one of the previo
us states and explore other directions
2. We can skip few states and make a jum
p in new directions
3. We can explore several directions
261 to fi
gure out the correct path
**Simulated Annealing **
• A hill-climbing algorithm which never makes a move towards a lower value g
uaranteed to be incomplete because it can get stuck on a local maximum. A
nd if algorithm applies a random walk, by moving a successor, then it may c
omplete but not efficient. Simulated Annealing is an algorithm which yields b
oth efficiency and completeness.
• In mechanical term Annealing is a process of hardening a metal or glass to a
high temperature then cooling gradually, so this allows the metal to reach a l
ow-energy crystalline state. The same process is used in simulated annealin
g in which the algorithm picks a random move, instead of picking the best m
ove. If the random move improves the state, then it follows the same path. O
therwise, the algorithm follows the path which has a probability of less than
1 or it moves downhill and chooses another path.

262
A* Algorithm
• A* is based on using heuristic methods to achieve optimality and co
mpleteness, and is a variant of the best-first algorithm.
• When a search algorithm has the property of optimality, it means it i
s guaranteed to find the best possible solution, in our case the shor
test path to the finish state. When a search algorithm has the prope
rty of completeness, it means that if a solution to a given problem e
xists, the algorithm is guaranteed to find it.
• In A* search algorithm, we use search heuristic as well as the cost t
o reach the node. Hence we can combine both costs and this sum i
s called as a fitness number.

263
A* Algorithm Contd.
• Each time A* enters a state, it calculates the cost, f(n) (n being the
neighboring node), to travel to all of the neighboring nodes, and the
n enters the node with the lowest value of f(n).
f (n) = g (n) + h (n)
Where,
f(n) = Estimated cost of cheapest solution
g(n) = Cost to reach node n from initial state
h(n) = Cost to reach from node to goal node
• Typically, the A* algorithm is typically used for graphs and graph tra
versals. In terms of graphs, A* is used for finding the shortest path t
o a certain point from a given point.

264
Algorithm of A* search:
Step1: Place the starting node in the OPEN list.
Step 2: Check if the OPEN list is empty or not, if the list is empty then return fail
ure and stops.
Step 3: Select the node from the OPEN list which has the smallest value of eval
uation function (g+h), if node n is goal node then return success and stop, ot
herwise
Step 4: Expand node n and generate all of its successors, and put n into the clo
sed list. For each successor n', check whether n' is already in the OPEN or
CLOSED list, if not then compute evaluation function for n' and place into O
pen list.
Step 5: Else if node n' is already in OPEN and CLOSED, then it should be attac
hed to the back pointer which reflects the lowest g(n') value.
Step 6: Return to Step 2.

265
Points to Remember
• Completeness: A* algorithm is complete as long as:
a. Branching factor is finite.
b. Cost at every action is fixed.
• Optimal It is optimal when it follows two following condition
a. Admissible
b. Consistency
• Time Complexity :O(b^d)
b = branching factor
d = depth of solution
• Space Complexity :O(b^d)

266
Advantages
• It is complete and optimal.
• It is the best one from other techniques.
• It is used to solve very complex problems.
• SIt is optimally efficient, i.e. there is no other
optimal algorithm guaranteed to expand few
er nodes than A*.
267
Disadvantages:
• This algorithm is complete if the branchin
g factor is finite and every action has fixe
d cost.
• The main drawback of A* is memory requi
rement as it keeps all generated nodes in
the memory, so it is not practical for vario
us large-scale problems.
268
AO* (AND-OR) Algorithm
• When a problem can be divided into a set of sub problems,
where each sub problem can be solved separately and a co
mbination of these will be a solution, AND-OR graphs or AN
D - OR trees are used for representing the solution.
• The decomposition of the problem or problem reduction gen
erates AND arcs. One AND are may point to any number of
successor nodes. All these must be solved so that the arc wi
ll rise to many arcs, indicating several possible solutions. He
nce the graph is known as AND - OR instead of AND
• In

• In an AND-OR graph AO* algorithm is an efficient method to explor
e a solution path.
• AO* algorithm works mainly based on two phases. First phase will f
ind a heuristic value for nodes and arcs in a particular level. The ch
anges in the values of nodes will be propagated back in the next ph
ase.
• In order to find solution in an AND-OR graph AO* algorithm works
well similar to best first search with an ability to handle the AND arc
appropriately. The algorithm finds an optimal path from initial node
by propagating the results like solution and change in heuristic valu
e to the ancestors as in algorithm.

In figure (a)
• The top node A has been expanded producing two area one leadin
g to B and leading to C-D
• The numbers at each node represent the value of f ' at that node (c
ost of getting to the goal state from current state). For simplicity, it i
s assumed that every operation (i.e. applying a rule) has unit cost, i
.e., each are with single successor will have a cost of 1 and each of
its components.
• With the available information till now , it appears that C is the most
promising node to expand since its f ' = 3 , the lowest but going thro
ugh B would be better since to use C we must also use D' and the
cost would be 9(3+4+1+1). Through B it would be 6(5+1).
