Glossary AND-OR graph (or tree). Representation of a solution strategy in which a path from the start node to the solution node requires traversing any branch at an OR node and every branch at an AND node. In a related Min-Max search used in two-person games, a path from the start node to the solution node takes the lowest cost branch at a Min node and the highest cost branch at a Max node.Bitmap. Digital representation of an image in which points are mapped to an array of binary pixels.
Branch-and-bound.A search technique that avoids paths certain to lead to higher cost solutions than the best solution obtained so far.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
