Abstract. Constraint satisfaction problems provide strong formalism for modeling variety of real life problems. This paper presents a work currently in progress of which the goal i...
Abstract. This paper introduces a generalization of the nvalue constraint that bounds the number of distinct values taken by a set of variables.The generalized constraint (called n...
When the search for a solution to a constraint satisfaction problem backtracks, it is not usually worthwhile to remember the assignment that failed, because the same assignment wil...
Abstract. An optimization problem arising in the design of optical fibre networks is discussed. A network contains client nodes, each installed on one or more SONET rings. A const...
Cognitive architectures aspire for generality both in terms of problem solving and learning across a range of problems, yet to date few examples of domain independent learning has...
