Abstract. This paper shows that idempotents in finite rings of integers can act as Generalized Boolean Assignments (GBA’s) by providing a completeness theorem. We introduce the ...
Detecting the relevant attributes of an unknown target concept is an important and well studied problem in algorithmic learning. Simple greedy strategies have been proposed that s...
We propose a method for local search of Boolean relations relating variables of a CNF formula. The method is to branch on small subsets of the set of CNF variables and to analyze ...
Identifying and breaking the symmetries of CNF formulae has been shown to lead to significant reductions in search times. In this paper we describe a more systematic and efficient...
Abstract. This paper is centered on the problem of merging (possibly conflicting) information coming from different sources. Though this problem has attracted much attention in pro...
