Hybridization of Estimation of Distribution Algorithms with a Repair Method for Solving Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) are new promising methods in the field of genetic and evolutionary algorithms. In the case of conventional Genetic and Evolutionary Al...

Using Inferred Disjunctive Constraints To Decompose Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Constraint satisfaction problems involve finding values for problem variables that satisfy constraints on what combinations of values are permitted. They have applications in many...

Duality in Optimization and Constraint Satisfaction
We show that various duals that occur in optimization and constraint satisfaction can be classified as inference duals, relaxation duals, or both. We discuss linear programming, su...

A New Approach to Distributed Task Assignment using Lagrangian Decomposition and Distributed Constraint Satisfaction
We present a new formulation of distributed task assignment, called Generalized Mutual Assignment Problem (GMAP), which is derived from an NP-hard combinatorial optimization probl...

Enhancements of Branch and Bound Methods for the Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problem
Two methods are described for enhancing performance of branch and bound methods for overconstrained CSPS. These methods improve either the upper or lower bound, respectively, duri...
