Applying Local Search to Temporal Reasoning
Local search techniques have attracted considerable interest in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) community since the development of GSAT [9] and the min-conflicts heuristic [5] ...

Universal Algebra and Hardness Results for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present algebraic conditions on constraint languages Γ that ensure the hardness of the constraint satisfaction problem CSP(Γ) for complexity classes L, NL, P, NP and ModpL. Th...

Ruling Out Polynomial-Time Approximation Schemes for Hard Constraint Satisfaction Problems
The maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is the following computational problem: an instance is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal...

Rewriting Numeric Constraint Satisfaction Problems for Consistency Algorithms
Reformulating constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) in lower arity is a common procedure when computing consistency. Lower arity CSPs are simpler to treat than high arity CSPs. ...

A Probabilistic Algorithm for k-SAT and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present a simple probabilistic algorithm for solving kSAT, and more generally, for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). The algorithm follows a simple localsearch pa...
