Sokoban solvers are programs that solve sokoban levels. There are many programs available that can solve Sokoban levels (see [[Links#Sokoban Solvers |Sokoban solvers]]).
+
A Sokoban solver program is a program that <u>''tries to''</u> solve Sokoban levels. There are several solver programs available. (See [[Links#Sokoban Solvers |Sokoban solvers]].)
-
There are different solver types:
+
Solver programs may have different objectives:
-
# Solvers which just try to find any solution
+
# Find any solution
-
# Solvers which try to find push optimal solutions
+
# Find push optimal solutions
-
# Solvers which try to find push optimal solutions with best moves
+
# Find push optimal solutions with best moves
-
# Solvers which try to find move optimal solutions
+
# Find move optimal solutions
-
# Solvers which try to find move optimal solutions with best pushes
+
# Find move optimal solutions with best pushes
-
Usually a solver is designed to just find any solution. If the solution is to be optimized an optimizer program can be used ([[Links#Sokoban Solvers |Optimizers]]).
+
Given the computational complexity of these tasks, a solver program is usually designed for just finding any solution. If a solution is to be optimized, an optimizer program can be used. (See [[Links#Sokoban Solvers |Optimizers]].)
-
To get an impression of what levels are solvable by which solver here are some statistics.<br />

The statistics presented here provide a picture of what the best freely available Sokoban solvers can do.<br />

For practical reasons, almost all tests have been performed with a 10 minutes time limit. The tests are, however, not a 10 minutes contest but a showcase for what the solvers can do, so other time limits are entirely feasible.

The statistics shows the results for the leading Sokoban solvers for various level collections. Please note that the grand totals are simple summations. The number of solved unique levels may differ slightly due to duplicate levels in the level packs.
 +
 
 +
This test suite may be changed by adding new level collections from time to time.

The only reason for benchmarking the GroupEffort test suite is to demonstrate the limited veracity of the statement made in section "6 Conclusion" of the thesis, where the author writes that the GroupEffort solver "outperforms existing solvers".  
The benchmarks show that this was only true for the cherry-picked small test set at the time the thesis was published, never for the presumably more representative large test set.

Current revision as of 18:40, 8 October 2024

A Sokoban solver program is a program that tries to solve Sokoban levels. There are several solver programs available. (See Sokoban solvers.)

Solver programs may have different objectives:

  1. Find any solution
  2. Find push optimal solutions
  3. Find push optimal solutions with best moves
  4. Find move optimal solutions
  5. Find move optimal solutions with best pushes

Given the computational complexity of these tasks, a solver program is usually designed for just finding any solution. If a solution is to be optimized, an optimizer program can be used. (See Optimizers.)

The statistics presented here provide a picture of what the best freely available Sokoban solvers can do.

General benchmarking information

For practical reasons, almost all tests have been performed with a 10 minutes time limit. The tests are, however, not a 10 minutes contest but a showcase for what the solvers can do, so other time limits are entirely feasible.

The hardware used for the tests is a standard PC with a modern operating system (64bit).

Tests are performed with default solver settings.

XSokoban Test Suite

The XSokoban level set is the de facto standard test suite in the academic literature on Sokoban solver programming.

Sokoban Solver Statistics - XSokoban Test Suite - Solved Levels
Collection Author Levels Rolling Stone Takaken YASS JSoko Sokolution Curry Festival
XSokoban Thinking Rabbit, ... 90 59* 90 89 67 90 90 90
Sokoban Solver Statistics - XSokoban Test Suite - Push-optimal Solutions
Collection Author Levels Rolling Stone Pereira et al. JSoko Sokolution
XSokoban Thinking Rabbit, ... 90 6 28 31 59

The statistic shows that Sokolution is by far the best solver when searching for push optimal solutions.

Large Test Suite

The large test suite comprises level packs selected for being a challenge for the solvers, but not too difficult. The statistics shows the results for the leading Sokoban solver programs.

This test suite is not subject to change, as it is intended to be a "Large Standard Test Suite" for Sokoban solver programs.

Total levels 3272 3205 3172 2953 2891

Open Test Suite

The statistics shows the results for the leading Sokoban solvers for various level collections. Please note that the grand totals are simple summations. The number of solved unique levels may differ slightly due to duplicate levels in the level packs.

This test suite may be changed by adding new level collections from time to time.

Total levels 10773 9950 9694 8919 8485

GroupEffort Test Suite

The only reason for benchmarking the GroupEffort test suite is to demonstrate the limited veracity of the statement made in section "6 Conclusion" of the thesis, where the author writes that the GroupEffort solver "outperforms existing solvers".

The benchmarks show that this was only true for the cherry-picked small test set at the time the thesis was published, never for the presumably more representative large test set.
