Question

Consider the problem of finding a path in the grid shown below from the position S to the
position G. The agent can move on the grid horizontally and vertically, one square at a
time (each step has a cost of one). No step may be made into a forbidden crossed area. In
the case of ties, break it using up, left, right, and down.
(a) Draw the search tree in a greedy search. Manhattan distance should be used as the
heuristic function. That is, h(n) for any node n is the Manhattan distance from n
to G. The Manhattan distance between two points is the distance in the x-direction
plus the distance in the y-direction. It corresponds to the distance traveled along city
streets arranged in a grid. For example, the Manhattan distance between G and S is
4. What is the path that is found by the greedy search?
(b) Draw the search tree in an A∗
search. Manhattan distance should be used as the
