In this problem, the goal is to stack the blocks alphabetically from a given initial configuration. The agent has a limited number of movements to accomplish this task:
move a block from the current stack and put on the table
move a block from the current stack onto another stack
Each configuration of the current stack is a state in the search space and can be given a heuristic value. This is how you compute the heuristics value of a state:
Add a point for every block that is positioned on the block it should be on.
Subtract a point for every block that is resting on the wrong block.
Using this function, the goal state has a score of 8 because every block is in the right position so we add one point for each block as follows
A(+1),B(+1),C(+1),D(+1),E(+1),F(+1),G(+1), and H(+1) giving a total of 8.
The initial state has a score of 4(+1 for blocks C, D, E, F, G, H and -1 for A and B).
In the example above, there's one move from the initial state: move A to the table.
Figure 2. The Initial (left) and the only state reachable from it (right): state2
From this new state (state2), there are 3 possible moves shown below from left to right:
place A on H(back to the original stack)
move H to the table
place H on A
What are the scores of these three states?
In every step and as discussed in class, Hill Climbing (HC) will move in the direction of the higher score (towards the goal with the maximum score of 8). If the scores of the states reachable from the current state are not higher than the score of the current state, then HC will halt. At this point, HC will have reached a local optimum.
