  2. Maze-solving algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze-solving_algorithm

    Robot in a wooden maze. A maze-solving algorithm is an automated method for solving a maze.The random mouse, wall follower, Pledge, and Trémaux's algorithms are designed to be used inside the maze by a traveler with no prior knowledge of the maze, whereas the dead-end filling and shortest path algorithms are designed to be used by a person or computer program that can see the whole maze at once.

  3. Lee algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_algorithm

    The Lee algorithm is one possible solution for maze routing problems based on breadth-first search. It always gives an optimal solution, if one exists, but is slow and requires considerable memory. It always gives an optimal solution, if one exists, but is slow and requires considerable memory.

  4. Maze: Solve the World's Most Challenging Puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAZE:_Solve_the_World's...

    With this structure established, Manson challenges readers to solve three tasks: to journey from Room #1 to Room #45 and back to Room #1 in only sixteen steps, to interpret the riddle hidden in Room #45 based on visual and verbal clues, and to find the solution to this riddle hidden along the shortest possible path found in the first task.

  5. Bellman–Ford algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellman–Ford_algorithm

    The Bellman–Ford algorithm is an algorithm that computes shortest paths from a single source vertex to all of the other vertices in a weighted digraph. [1] It is slower than Dijkstra's algorithm for the same problem, but more versatile, as it is capable of handling graphs in which some of the edge weights are negative numbers. [2]

  6. Pathfinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathfinding

    Equivalent paths between A and B in a 2D environment. Pathfinding or pathing is the search, by a computer application, for the shortest route between two points. It is a more practical variant on solving mazes. This field of research is based heavily on Dijkstra's algorithm for finding the shortest path on a weighted graph.

  7. Dijkstra's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra's_algorithm

    Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path from a given source node to every other node. [7]: 196–206 It can be used to find the shortest path to a specific destination node, by terminating the algorithm after determining the shortest path to the destination node. For example, if the nodes of the graph represent cities, and the costs of ...

  8. A* search algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A*_search_algorithm

    Compared to Dijkstra's algorithm, the A* algorithm only finds the shortest path from a specified source to a specified goal, and not the shortest-path tree from a specified source to all possible goals. This is a necessary trade-off for using a specific-goal-directed heuristic. For Dijkstra's algorithm, since the entire shortest-path tree is ...

  9. Shortest path problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortest_path_problem

    Shortest path (A, C, E, D, F) between vertices A and F in the weighted directed graph. In graph theory, the shortest path problem is the problem of finding a path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph such that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.
