Identifying and Exploiting Features for Effective Plan Retrieval in Case-Based Planning

Case-based planning can fruitfully exploit knowledge gained by solving a large number of problems, storing the corresponding solutions in a plan library and reusing them for solving similar planning problems in the future. Case-based planning is very effective when similar reuse candidates can be efficiently and effectively chosen. In this paper, we study an innovative technique based on planning problem features for efficiently retrieving solved planning problems (and relative plans) from large plan libraries. A problem feature is a characteristic –usually provided under the form of a number– of the instance that can be automatically derived from the problem specification, domain and search space analyses, or different problem encodings. Given a planning problem to solve, its features are extracted and compared to those of problems stored in the case base, in order to identify most similar problems. Since the use of existing planning features is not always able to effectively distinguish between problems within the same planning domain, we introduce a large number of new features. An experimental analysis in this paper investigates the best set of features to be exploited for retrieving plans in case-based planning, and shows that our feature-based retrieval approach can significantly improve the performance of a state-of-the-art case-based planning system.

An Empirical Analysis of Some Heuristic Features for Planning through Local Search and Action Graphs

Planning through local search and action graphs is a powerful approach to fully-automated planning which is implemented in the well-known LPG planner. The approach is based on a stochastic local search procedure exploring a space of partial plans and several heuristic features with different possible options. In this paper, we experimentally analyze the most important of them, with the goal of understanding and evaluating their impact on the performance of LPG, and of identifying default settings that work well on a large class of problems. In particular, we analyze several heuristic techniques for (a) evaluating the search neighborhood, (b) defining/restricting the search neighborhood, (c) selecting the next plan flaw to handle, (d) setting the "noise" parameter randomizing the search, and (e) computing reachability information that can be exploited by the heuristic functions used to evaluate the neighborhood elements. Some of these techniques were introduced in previous work on LPG, while others are new. Additional experimental results indicate that the current version of LPG using the identified best heuristic techniques as the default settings is competitive with the winner of the last (2008) International Planning Competition.
