Online algorithms with advice: A survey

J Boyar, LM Favrholdt, C Kudahl, KS Larsen… - ACM Computing …, 2017 - dl.acm.org
In online scenarios requests arrive over time, and each request must be serviced in an
irrevocable manner before the next request arrives. Online algorithms with advice is an area …

Robustification of online graph exploration methods

F Eberle, A Lindermayr, N Megow, L Nölke… - Proceedings of the …, 2022 - ojs.aaai.org
Exploring unknown environments is a fundamental task in many domains, eg, robot
navigation, network security, and internet search. We initiate the study of a learning …

Online algorithms with advice: a survey

J Boyar, LM Favrholdt, C Kudahl, KS Larsen… - Acm Sigact News, 2016 - dl.acm.org
Online algorithms with advice is an area of research where one attempts to measure how
much knowledge of the future is necessary to achieve a given competitive ratio. The lower …

Online search with a hint

S Angelopoulos - Information and Computation, 2023 - Elsevier
We introduce the study of search problems, in a setting in which the searcher has some
information, or hint concerning the hiding target. In particular, we focus on one of the …

Learning-Based Algorithms for Graph Searching Problems

AF DePavia, E Tani, A Vakilian - … Conference on Artificial …, 2024 - proceedings.mlr.press
We consider the problem of graph searching with prediction recently introduced by Banerjee
et al.(2023). In this problem, an agent starting at some vertex r has to traverse a (potentially …

Local Advice and Local Decompression

A Balliu, S Brandt, F Kuhn, K Nowicki, D Olivetti… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Algorithms with advice have received ample attention in the distributed and online settings,
and they have recently proven useful also in dynamic settings. In this work we study local …

Deterministic graph exploration with advice

B Gorain, A Pelc - ACM Transactions on Algorithms (TALG), 2018 - dl.acm.org
We consider the fundamental task of graph exploration. An n-node graph has unlabeled
nodes, and all ports at any node of degree d are arbitrarily numbered 0,…, d− 1. A mobile …

Almost-optimal deterministic treasure hunt in unweighted graphs

S Bouchard, Y Dieudonné, A Labourel… - ACM Transactions on …, 2023 - dl.acm.org
A mobile agent navigating along edges of a simple connected unweighted graph, either
finite or countably infinite, has to find an inert target (treasure) hidden in one of the nodes …

Search Games with Predictions

S Angelopoulos, T Lidbetter, K Panagiotou - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
We study search games between a mobile Searcher and an immobile Hider in which the
Searcher aims to minimize some payoff, which is either the time to find the Hider (the search …

[HTML][HTML] Lower and upper competitive bounds for online directed graph exploration

KT Foerster, R Wattenhofer - Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 - Elsevier
We study the problem of exploring all nodes of an unknown directed graph. A searcher has
to construct a tour that visits all nodes, but only has information about the parts of the graph it …
