  2. Hillclimbing (railway) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillclimbing_(railway)

    Hillclimbing is a problem faced by railway systems when a load must be carried up an incline. While railways have a great ability to haul very heavy loads, this is only possible when the tracks are fairly level.

  3. Hill climbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_climbing

    Hill climbing attempts to maximize (or minimize) a target function (), where is a vector of continuous and/or discrete values. At each iteration, hill climbing will adjust a single element in and determine whether the change improves the value of ().

  4. Min-conflicts algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min-conflicts_algorithm

    In fact, Constraint Satisfaction Problems that respond best to a min-conflicts solution do well where a greedy algorithm almost solves the problem. Map coloring problems do poorly with Greedy Algorithm as well as Min-Conflicts. Sub areas of the map tend to hold their colors stable and min conflicts cannot hill climb to break out of the local ...

  5. Iterated local search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_local_search

    Iterated Local Search [1] [2] (ILS) is a term in applied mathematics and computer science defining a modification of local search or hill climbing methods for solving discrete optimization problems. Local search methods can get stuck in a local minimum , where no improving neighbors are available.

  6. Local search (constraint satisfaction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_search_(constraint...

    A drawback of hill climbing with moves that do not decrease cost is that it may cycle over assignments of the same cost. Tabu search [1] [2] [3] overcomes this problem by maintaining a list of "forbidden" assignments, called the tabu list. In particular, the tabu list typically contains only the most recent changes.

  7. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    The goal is to bring the system, from an arbitrary initial state, to a state with the minimum possible energy. Simulated annealing searching for a maximum. The objective here is to get to the highest point. In this example, it is not enough to use a simple hill climb algorithm, as there are many local maxima. By cooling the temperature slowly ...

    Eating disorders remain a "huge" issue in climbing, Olympic gold medallist Janja Garnbret said, even as new regulations meant to stop dangerously underweight athletes competing came into effect ...

  9. Hillclimbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillclimbing

    Hillclimbing, also known as hill climbing, speed hillclimbing, or speed hill climbing, is a branch of motorsport in which drivers compete against the clock to complete an uphill course. It is one of the oldest forms of motorsport, since the first known hillclimb at La Turbie near Nice , France, took place as long ago as 31 January 1897.
