A Map Complexity Measure Based on Contact Surface

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper defined the full connect map and contact surface, and proposed a new map complexity measure, and compared with measurement methods based on Hamming distance and relative Hamming distance. We further research on the relationship between the complexity measure and the map connectivity. The complexity measures based on Hamming distance and contact surface are applicable to full connectivity map, and the new measurement can reflects the difficulty of the pathfinding algorithm more accurately, especially in a higher complexity.
