Question

Though local search algorithms are not systematic, key advantages would include __________

(a) Less memory

(b) More time

(c) Finds a solution in large infinite space

(d) Less memory & Finds a solution in large infinite space

Answer 1

Right answer is (d) Less memory & Finds a solution in large infinite space

Easy explanation: Two advantages: (1) they use very little memory-usually a constant amount; and (2) they can often find reasonable solutions in large or infinite (continuous) state spaces for which systematic algorithms are unsuitable.
