Difference between Informed and Uninformed Search in AI

Informed Search: Informed Search algorithms have information on the goal state which helps in more efficient searching. This information is obtained by a function that estimates how close a state is to the goal state.
Example: Greedy Search and Graph Search

Uninformed Search: Uninformed search algorithms have no additional information on the goal node other than the one provided in the problem definition. The plans to reach the goal state from the start state differ only by the order and length of actions.
Examples: Depth First Search and Breadth-First Search

Informed Search vs. Uninformed Search:
