Conditional hardness for satisfiable 3-CSPs
In this paper we study a fundamental open problem in the area of probabilistic checkable proofs: What is the smallest s such that NP naPCP1,s[O(log n), 3]? In the language of har...

Enhancing Constraints Manipulation in Semiring-Based Formalisms
Abstract. Many "semiring-like" structures are used in Soft Constraint Satisfaction Problems (SCSPs). We review a few properties of semirings that are useful for dealing w...

Soft Constraints Processing over Divisible Residuated Lattices
We claim that divisible residuated lattices (DRLs) can act as a unifying evaluation framework for soft constraint satisfaction problems (soft CSPs). DRLs form the algebraic semanti...

Using Expectation Maximization to Find Likely Assignments for Solving CSP's
We present a new probabilistic framework for finding likely variable assignments in difficult constraint satisfaction problems. Finding such assignments is key to efficient sea...
