Whether you're a beginner eager to learn about classic AI techniques or an experienced practitioner exploring different approaches, this collection offers a diverse set of algorithms for experimentation.

Artificial Intelligence Algorithms

This repository contains implementations of various AI algorithms. Each algorithm is described briefly below:

Search Algorithms

1. A (Astar) Algorithm*:

   • A heuristic search algorithm that finds the shortest path between nodes.
   • Combines the cost to reach a node with an estimate of the remaining cost to the goal.

2. Depth-First Search (DFS):

   • Explores as far as possible along a branch before backtracking.
   • Uses a stack to keep track of nodes.

3. Uniform Cost Search (UCS):

   • Explores the least-cost path first.
   • Uses a priority queue based on path cost.

4. Greedy Algorithm:

   • Chooses the next step based solely on the heuristic value (ignores path cost).
   • Often used for optimization problems.

5. Breadth-First Search (BFS):

   • Explores all neighbors at the current depth before moving to the next level.
   • Uses a queue for traversal.

Optimization Algorithms

1. Genetic Algorithm:

   • Inspired by natural selection and genetics.
   • Used for optimization and search problems.
   • Involves populations, selection, crossover, and mutation.

2. Hill Climbing:

   • Iteratively improves a solution by making small adjustments.
   • Stops when no better solution can be found in the neighborhood.

3. 8-Queens Problem:

   • Solves the classic problem of placing 8 queens on an 8x8 chessboard.
   • Ensures that no two queens threaten each other.

4. Minimax Algorithm:

   • Used in game theory for decision-making.
   • Finds the best move in a two-player game.

5. Alpha-Beta Pruning:

   • Enhances the minimax algorithm by reducing the number of nodes evaluated.
   • Prunes branches that cannot affect the final decision.

Heuristic

• Manhattan Distance:
  • A common heuristic for grid-based pathfinding.
  • Measures the distance between two points along the grid lines.
