Show how local search can be used to find a solution. At each step, you need to show the evaluation of board.
(Note that local search can be struck to a local optimum, i.e., not always solution.)
Board The number of conflicts Selected column and value
(2, 1, 2, 0, 4) 5 (0,3)
(3, 1, 2, 0, 4) 4 (1,0)
(3, 0, 2, 0, 4) 3 (3,1)
(3, 0, 2, 1, 4) 2 (2,4)
(3, 0, 4, 1, 4) 1
3. Exercise – CSP
Trace the operation of Most-Constrained Variables First (MCVF) for the 5-queens problem.
o MCVF:
Most constrained variable: You can select a variable that has the least number of choices.
o List at least 6 steps, or till a solution is found.
o You need to show how next variables are selected.
Board # of constrains # of constrains # of constrains # of constrains # of constrains Selection
