Abstract. Inspired by AND/OR search spaces for graphical models recently introduced, we propose to augment Ordered Decision Diagrams with AND nodes, in order to capture function de...
Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) often fail to exploit sharing between Boolean functions that differ only in their support variables. In a memory circuit, for example, the function...
Dynamic programming algorithms have been successfully applied to propositional stochastic planning problems by using compact representations, in particular algebraic decision diag...
We consider the path length in decision diagrams for multiple-valued functions. This is an important measure of a decision diagram, since this models the time needed to evaluate t...
Discrete functions are now commonly represented by binary (BDD) and multiple-valued (MDD) decision diagrams. Sifting is an effective heuristic technique which applies adjacent var...
