Abstract: Classical planning problems are typically defined using lifted first-order representations, which offer compactness and generality. While most planners ground these representations to simplify reasoning, this can cause an exponential blowup in size. Recent approaches instead operate directly on the lifted level to avoid full grounding. We explore a middle ground between fully lifted and fully grounded planning by introducing three SAT encodings that keep actions lifted while partially grounding predicates. Unlike previous SAT encodings, which scale quadratically with plan length, our approach scales linearly, enabling better performance on longer plans. Empirically, our best encoding outperforms the state of the art in length-optimal planning on hard-to-ground domains.
Depression subtype classification from social media posts: few-shot prompting vs. fine-tuning of large language models
BackgroundSocial media provides timely proxy signals of mental health, but reliable tweet-level classification of depression subtypes remains challenging due to short, noisy text, overlapping symptomatology,
