Preface
The term problem solving is used in many disciplines, sometimes with different perspectives. As one of the important topics in artificial intelligence (AI) research, it is a computerized process of human problem-solving behaviors. So the aim of problem solving is to develop techniques that program computers to find solutions to problems that can properly be described.
In the early stage of AI, symbolists play a dominant role. They believe that all human cognitive behaviors, including problem solving, can be modeled by symbolic representation and reasoning and do not advocate the use of strict mathematical models. The most general approach to tackle problem-solving processes is “generation and test”. Applying an action to an initial state, ...
