CS472FinalProject

Course: CS 472 - Artificial Intelligence (Spring 2016) Assignment: Final Project (CSPs)

Description

The following project is designed to explore the usage of search algorithms applied to constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). In particular, we examine Sudoku as a CSP and apply traditional Backtracking Search along with a number of heuristics to examine their performance. Finally, we examine a MinConflicts solution, and examine why its application to Sudoku has a very low chance of success.
