ITERATIVE DEEPENING

DEPTH SEARCH (IDDS)

Introduction to IDDFS

• Iterative Deepening Depth-First Search (IDDFS)IDDFS is a search algorithm that


explores a search space incrementally.
• It combines the memory efficiency of Depth-First Search (DFS) with the completeness
of Breadth-First Search (BFS).
• Ideal for large, infinite, or unknown search spaces.
How IDDFS Works

1. Algorithm Steps:Initialize Depth Limit: Start with depth limit = 0.


2. Depth-Limited Search: Perform DFS up to the current depth limit.
3. Check for Goal: If the goal is found, terminate the search.
4. Increase Depth: Increase the depth limit and repeat the search.
5. Iterate: Continue until the goal is found or the search space is exhausted.
Example of code in python

■ def IDDFS(root, goal):


■ depth = 0
■ while True:
■ found, result = DLS(root, goal, depth)
■ if found:
■ return result
■ depth += 1
Advantages of IDDFS

•Memory Efficiency:
•Unlike BFS, IDDFS does not require storing all nodes at a given depth level, making it more memory
efficient.
•Shortest Path:
•IDDFS guarantees finding the shortest path to the goal, as it explores all nodes at a given depth
before going deeper.
•Combines DFS and BFS:
•It merges the depth exploration of DFS with the level-by-level exploration of BFS, providing a
balanced approach.
Applications of IDDFS

1. In AI:
2. Problem-solving: Used in solving puzzles like the 8-puzzle or 15-puzzle.
3. Game playing: Applied in game tree searches, such as in chess and checkers.
4. Real-world Examples:
5. Route planning: Finding the shortest route in navigation systems.
6. Network routing: Determining optimal paths in communication networks.
Comparison with Other Search Algorithms

•DFS:
•Explores paths to their maximum depth without considering shorter alternatives,
potentially missing the shortest path.
•BFS:
•Explores all nodes at the current depth before moving deeper, requiring significant
memory for wide search spaces.
•IDDFS:
•Efficiently combines both strategies, ensuring optimal paths are found with reduced
memory usage.
conclusion

•Summary:
•IDDFS is a powerful and efficient search algorithm suitable for AI applications requiring optimal path finding.
•It effectively balances the memory constraints of DFS with the completeness of BFS.
•Valuable in various fields, from problem-solving to network routing.
•Final Thoughts:
•Its iterative approach makes it versatile for different problem spaces and scales.
