Abstract

NBS is a non-parametric bidirectional search algorithm, proved to expand at most twice the number of node expansions required to verify the optimality of a solution. We introduce DVCBS, a new algorithm based on a dynamic vertex cover that aims to further reduce the number of expansions. Unlike NBS, DVCBS does not have any worst-case bound guarantees, but in practice it outperforms NBS in verifying the optimality of solutions.
