Dear students,

The fifth paper exercise is now available in CMS. Submit your solutions to CMS, the deadline is January 20.

This time, Aleena will correct and discuss on the next tutorial only the exercises 11 and 12. Exercises 13 and 14 are concerned with landmarks and the LM-Cut heuristic that will be fully covered by lectures after the last tutorial. So, use these two exercises as a preparation for the exam and you will have an opportunity to ask questions about them during exam preparation lecture on February 8.

Best,

   Dan

Dear students,
the results of the Additive and Max Heuristics project are now online. In case there exist any problems with the evaluation of this project, please contact me (Pascal Lauer). Tomorrow I will send you a short list of comments if I deducted points in your project.

Note that, if you want to work in groups from now on, you have to contact Thorsten or me with your group information until Sunday.

Best,
Pascal

Dear students,

since the grading of the hmax and hadd projects may take a while and you need to know whether you passed the mandatory projects to form groups, we moved the deadline to form groups by one week to December 18th. Once you have formed a group, please do as instructed in the project description and do not forget to write an email to me or Pascal Lauer.

Regards, Thorsten Klößner

Dear students,
the results, of the Goal-Counting Heuristic project, are now visible. In case there exist any problems with the evaluation of this project, please contact Pascal Lauer.

Note that, in order to be admitted to the group phase (and exam), you will have to implement the Additive Heuristic (hadd) or Max Heuristic (hmax). You can find all details in the project description.

Dear students,

it was brought to our attention that the nightly tests from yesterday did not run or ran with a commit different the newest for some of you. The issue was on our side and should be fixed now. We just re-ran the nightly tests, so you should have received an email with the correct nightly test results in case you recently pushed a change. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards, Thorsten Klößner

Dear students,

The second paper exercise is now available in CMS. Submit your solutions to CMS, the deadline is November 25.

Please, include your name and matriculation number in every file you submit, and if you decide to do some exercise in a group, then submit such exercise only once (or clearly indicate that it was submitted also by somebody else). This will make it easier for Aleena to correct your solutions.

Best,

   Dan

Dear students,

Of course you can always ask questions in the forum and office hour. Please note that the office hour for next Wednesday was moved to 14:30-15:30.

See you tomorrow,
Thorsten & Pascal

Dear students,

The deadline for the first exercise is November 11, and you can submit your solutions as pdf/zip in CMS.

Best,
