Search Heuristics

Search Heuristics is a computational strategy that belongs to the class of problem-solving methods in artificial intelligence and is distinguished by its use of domain-specific knowledge to guide the search process efficiently toward a solution, typically through approximate or rule-of-thumb techniques that trade optimality for speed.
