骑士巡游问题:常规解法与启发式方法优化

The knight’s tour puzzle is played on a chess board with a single chess piece, the knight. The object of the puzzle is to find a sequence of moves that allow the knight to visit every square on the board exactly once. One such sequence is called a “tour.” The knight’s tour puzzle has fascinated chess players, mathematicians and computer scientists alike for many years. The upper bound on the number of possible legal tours for an eight-by-eight chessboard is known to be 1.305×10351.305×1035; however, there are even more possible dead ends. Clearly this is a problem that requires some real brains, some real computing power, or both.

Although researchers have studied many different algorithms to solve the knight’s tour problem, a graph search is one of the easiest to understand and program. Once again we will solve the problem using two main steps:

Represent the legal moves of a knight on a chessboard as a graph.
Use a graph algorithm to find a path of length rows×columns−1rows×columns−1 where every vertex on the graph is visited exactly once.

启发式优化的思想是:让knight一开始尽量绕着棋盘的边缘游走。
因为棋盘边缘的可走路径少(2或3),而棋盘中间可走路径多(8),因此能先遍历边缘结点,使迭代次数减少。到了knight游走后期,虽然knight不得不走到棋盘中间,但因为边缘的结点已被遍历过(游戏规则是一个结点只能遍历一次),此时即使在棋盘中间,可走的路径也大大减少了。通过人类的智慧,启发式方法的达到了极其优化的效果。
