    CS221 Section 3: Search Search Problems, UCS and A* David Lin, Jerry Qu Recap of A* Search ● We want to avoid wasted effort (to go from SF to LA, we probably don’t want to end up looking at roads to Seattle, for example). ● To do this, we can use a heuristic to estimate how far is left until we reach our goal. ● The heuristic must be optimistic. It must underestimate the true cost. Why? Relaxation A good way to come up with a reasonable heuristic is to solve an easier (less constrained) version of the problem For example, we can use geographic distance as a heuristic for distance if we have the positions of nodes. Note: The main point of relaxation is to attain a problem that can be solved more efficiently. First, let’s see what happens when we run UCS.

The company has agreed to acquire 51 percent of the share capital in Katholisches Klinikum Duisburg hospital (KKD). The remaining share capital will be held by local institutions related to the Catholic Church. KKD operates a maximum care hospital with four locations in Duisburg and a total of 1,034 beds as well as a rehabilitation clinic with 220 beds. KKD also operates two nursing care facilities. In 2010, KKD’s hospitals provided inpatient care for about 30,000 patients (thereof 26,500 in acute care). KKD has about 2,200 employees and achieved 2010 sales of approximately € 134 million. HELIOS will establish two new hospital buildings to consolidate KKD’s acute care operations into two locations. The total investments by the company will be approximately € 176 million, over five years. HELIOS already operates 10 acute care hospitals in North-Rhine Westphalia including maximum care facilities in Wuppertal and Krefeld. The acquisition is still subject to the approval of antitrust authorities and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2012. The parties agreed not to disclose the purchase price.

  • Forensic Experts to Study ‘Thousands of Bones’ Found
    Forensic experts to study ‘thousands of bones’ found in Vatican ossuaries VATICAN CITY (CNS) — During a search for the remains of a young Italian woman missing for more than 30 years, workers discovered an enormous number of bones inside two ossuaries in a building next to a Vatican cemetery. Further studies on the remains will be carried out starting July 27, but it was not yet possible to predict how long it would take to conduct a “detailed morphological analysis of the remains found in the ossuaries,” Alessandro Gisotti, outgoing interim director of the Vatican press office, said July 20. Gisotti said the investigation, led by a Vatican-appointed specialist in forensic medicine, Giovanni Arcudi, was being carried out according to internationally recognized protocols. Workers spent six hours July 20 inspecting two small underground cavities under an opening in the floor of the Pontifical Teutonic College. A genetics expert retained by the Orlandi family told reporters July 20 that the workers found what appeared to be “thousands of bones” belonging to perhaps dozens of individuals, both adult and minors. The expert, Giorgio Portera, said, “I can’t say if it’s 1,000 or 2,000, but there are really very many” bones and bone fragments, leading him to assume they might represent “the remains of a few dozen people.” Gisotti told The Associated Press in an email response to questions that it was “absolutely normal that in an ossuary, there is an elevated number of remains, above all in an ancient cemetery like the Teutonic. No surprise.” He said the total number of bones also included many tiny bone fragments.

  • The Rise of Markets in the Western World a Global Comparison
    The Rise of Markets in the Western World A Global Comparison Carol H. Shiue§ University of Texas at Austin May 2003 § I would like to thank Avinash Dixit, Michael Edelstein, Branko Milanovic, seminar participants at the World Bank Group on Inequality, the Economic History Workshop at Columbia University, the Economic History Workshop at the University of California at Los Angeles, and fellow Visiting Scholars at the Russell Sage Foundation for helpful conversations and comments. University of Texas at Austin, Department of Economics, Austin, TX 78712. Email: [email protected] 1 Abstract Does trade cause growth? How about the Industrial Revolution? A widely held view is that the more efficient markets in Europe provided an important reason of why the Industrial Revolution started its spread from Europe in the late 18th century, and not from China. Among the reasons that have been proposed for this supposed efficiency gap are differences in terms of geography, culture, nationality, population, institutions, or historical ‘accidents’ such as the discovery of the Americas. This paper compares the efficiency of commodity markets using data on the spatial dispersion of grain prices from the 15th to the early 20th century. This analysis is made possible by a new detailed and consistent set of grain price data covering about 60% of China in the 18th century—a part of China larger than Western Europe and contributing about one-fifth of the world’s population at the time. The findings suggest: first, the efficiency of markets in China and Europe was broadly comparable in the late 18th century, except perhaps for local economic activity, in areas of 150 kilometers or less, where Europe seems to have been ahead.
