Constraint networks have been shown to be useful in formulating such diverse problems as scene labeling, natural language parsing, and temporal reasoning. Given a constraint netwo...
Abstract. This work considers the problem of approximating fixed predicate constraint satisfaction problems (MAX k-CSP(P)). We show that if the set of assignments accepted by P co...
Abstract. Logic Programs with Annotated Disjunctions (LPADs) provide a simple and elegant framework for integrating probabilistic reasoning and logic programming. In this paper we ...
