What is heuristic search in Artificial Intelligence?

Options

  • A. A search technique that uses an estimate of the cost or distance to the goal to guide exploration
  • B. A search technique that never evaluates generated states
  • C. A search technique that always explores states in alphabetical order
  • D. More than one of the above
  • E. None of the above

Correct Answer (Detailed Explanation is Below)

A. A search technique that uses an estimate of the cost or distance to the goal to guide exploration

Detailed Explanation

Heuristic search uses problem-specific knowledge to estimate which states are more promising. This can significantly reduce the number of states explored compared with uninformed search.
