: The distribution of overlaps of solutions of a random constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is an indicator of the overall geometry of its solution space. For random k-SAT, nonri...
This paper proposes constraint propagation relaxation (CPR), a probabilistic approach to classical constraint propagation that provides another view on the whole parametric family...
One approach to optimal planning is to first start with a sub- optimal solution as a seed plan, and then iteratively search for shorter plans. This approach inevitably leads to an...
Prior algorithms known for exactly solving Max 2-Sat improve upon the trivial upper bound only for very sparse instances. We present new algorithms for exactly solving (in fact, c...
Abstract. In this paper, we investigate how an IA network can be effectively encoded into the SAT domain. We propose two basic approaches to modelling an IA network as a CSP: one r...
