Heuristic Classification Sample Clauses

Heuristic Classification. ‌ The field of heuristic search used for finding plans can be split into five different families of heuristics [63]: • Delete relaxation - estimate the cost to the goal by not taking into consideration the negative effects of actions, i.e. considering that actions can add more facts to be true, but do not delete any facts that have already been achieved. E.g. xxx xxxxxxxxx [6], h+ heuristic [69] and the landmark-cut heuristic [63]; • Abstraction - estimate the cost to the goal by applying an abstraction on the state-space and lead to a smaller space and simpler planning task to solve. For state-space S and an abstraction function α, the heuristic function hα (s) for state s is the cost of the cheapest path from α(s) to a goal state in S α . E.g. pattern databases (PDBs) [21, 29], symbolic PDBs [26], Cartesian abstractions [127] and merge-and-shrink [64]; • Critical Paths - estimate the cost of reaching a set of atoms as the cost of the most costly subset of size m. More formally, a set of sub-goals is considered reachable only when all size-m subsets are reachable ( m ∈ N1 is a parameter). E.g. hm heuristic family [50], additive hm [54] and additive-disjunctive heuristic graphs [18]; • Landmarks - are facts that have to be true at some point in every plan in order for it to be a successful plan. More formally, an action set A is a landmark if all plans include an action from it. For this family of heuristics, compute a set of landmarks and use it to derive a cost estimate. E.g. cost-partitioned landmarks [78] and landmark-cut heuristic [63]; • Network Flows - this type of heuristic takes into consideration the fact that in every plan, the number of times each fact is produced and the number of times it is consumed must be correlated. This is solved by mapping the planning problem into a Linear programming task. E.g. flow heuristic [140], state equation heuristic [5] and one heuristic that tackles the relationship between flow heuristics, abstraction and cost partitioning [115].

  • New Classification Should a new position or new classification be created within the Bargaining Unit during the term of this Agreement, the Employer and the Union will decide the rate of pay. Nothing herein prevents the Employer from filling such positions and having Nurses working in such positions during such negotiations. The salary when determined will be retroactive to the date on which the successful candidate commenced work in that classification.

  • Job Classification When a new classification (which is covered by the terms of this Collective Agreement) is established by the Hospital, the Hospital shall determine the rate of pay for such new classification and notify the local Union of the same. If the local Union challenges the rate, it shall have the right to request a meeting with the Hospital to endeavour to negotiate a mutually satisfactory rate. Such request will be made within ten (10) days after the receipt of notice from the Hospital of such new occupational classification and rate. Any change mutually agreed to resulting from such meeting shall be retroactive to the date that notice of the new rate was given by the Hospital. If the parties are unable to agree, the dispute concerning the new rate may be submitted to arbitration as provided in the Agreement within fifteen (15) days of such meeting. The decision of the Board of Arbitration (or arbitrator as the case may be) shall be based on the relationship established by comparison with the rates for other classifications in the bargaining unit having regard to the requirements of such classification. When the Hospital makes a substantial change in the job content of an existing classification which in reality causes such classification to become a new classification, the Hospital agrees to meet with the Union if requested to permit the Union to make representation with respect to the appropriate rate of pay. If the matter is not resolved following the meeting with the Union the matter may be referred to Arbitration as provided in the Agreement within fifteen (15) days of such meeting. The decision of the Board of Arbitration (or arbitrator as the case may be) shall be based on the relationship established by comparison with the rates for other classifications in the bargaining unit having regard to the requirements of such classifications. The parties further agree that any change mutually agreed to or awarded as a result of arbitration shall be retroactive only to the date that the Union raised the issue with the Hospital. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if as a result of compensable illness or injury covered by WSIB an employee is unable to carry out the regular functions of her position, the Hospital may, subject to its operational requirements, establish a special classification and salary in an endeavour to provide the employee with an opportunity of continued employment. This provision shall not be construed as a guarantee that such special classification(s) will be made available or continued.

  • New Job Classifications 11.1 Whenever the Company determines it appropriate to create a new job classification in the bargaining unit, it shall proceed as follows.

  • New Classifications If a new classification is created within the bargaining unit, the Employer agrees to meet with the Union and negotiate a rate of pay for this new classification. If the parties cannot reach agreement, at the request of either party, the matter shall be submitted to the arbitration procedure in Article 26 of this Agreement.

  • JOB CLASSIFICATIONS For the purpose of this Agreement the following classifications will be applicable:

  • Position Classification 1. The requirements of each position will be documented by a Position Description developed by reference to the Position Description Questionnaire (PDQ), and classified into a salary grade consistent with the Position Description and classifications for corresponding job duties found throughout the USNH System and according to USNH policy and processed by the KSC Office of Human Resources.

  • Client Classification 7.1. We shall not have an obligation to treat our clients in different classes depending on their knowledge and expertise.

  • COVERED CLASSIFICATIONS All employees shall be subject to post-Accident testing under this Agreement. All employees who perform Safety-Sensitive Functions, as defined in this Policy, shall be subject to reasonable suspicion testing.

  • Change in Classification A change in classification shall not alter a nurse’s accrued seniority for purposes of accrual of benefits or placement in the wage schedule.

  • CHANGE IN CLASSIFICATION SPECIFICATIONS Section 1. The Employer shall notify the Union of intended classification studies.
