## This paper analyzes the number of nodes expanded by A* as a function of the accuracy of its heuristic estimates by treating the errors h * -h as random variables whose distributions may vary over the nodes in the graph. Our model consists of an m -ary tree with unit branch costs and a unique goal

## Abstract Quicksort is a wellβknown sorting algorithm based on the divided control. the array to be sorted is divided into two sets as follows. an element in the array is specified, and the set of values larger than the value of that element and the set of values smaller than that value are const
Taking advantage of the power of DNA molecules to spontaneously form hairpin structures, Sakamoto et al. designed a molecular algorithm to solve instances of the satisΓΏability problem on Boolean expressions in clausal form (the SAT problem), and by developing new experimental techniques for molecula
Given a finite graph G=( V, E), what is the minimum number c(G) of incidence tests which are needed in the worst case to identify an unknown edge e\*EE? The number c(G) was first studied by Aigner and Triesch (1988), where it was shown that for almost all graphs in the random graph model where d(n)
We investigate the complexity of probabilistic inference from knowledge bases that encode probability distributions on finite domain relational structures. Our interest here lies in the complexity in terms of the domain under consideration in a specific application instance. We obtain the result tha
