Symmetry Breaking Using Value Precedence
We present a comprehensive study of the use of value precedence constraints to break value symmetry. We first give a simple encoding of value precedence into ternary constraints th...

Breaking Symmetry of Interchangeable Variables and Values
Abstract. A common type of symmetry is when both variables and values partition into interchangeable sets. Polynomial methods have been introduced to eliminate all symmetric soluti...

Comparison of Symmetry Breaking Methods
Symmetry in a Constraint Satisfaction Problem can cause wasted search, which can be avoided by adding constraints to the CSP to exclude symmetric assignments or by modifying the s...

Symmetry Breaking as a Prelude to Implied Constraints: A Constraint Modelling Pattern
Finite-domain constraint programming can be used to solve a wide range of problems by first modelling the problem as a set of constraints that characterise the problem’s solutio...

Symmetry Breaking in Constraint Satisfaction with Graph-Isomorphism: Comma-Free Codes
In this paper the use of graph isomorphism is investigated within the framework of symmetry breaking in constraint satisfaction problems. A running example of Comma-free codes is ...
