Reformulation for Extensional Reasoning
Relational databases have had great industrial success in computer science. The power of the paradigm is made clear both by its widespread adoption and by theoretical analysis. Tod...

Boosting MUS Extraction
Abstract. If a CSP instance has no solution, it contains a smaller unsolvable subproblem that makes unsolvable the whole problem. When solving such instance, instead of just return...

A Meta-CSP Model for Optimal Planning
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...

Computing and Using Lower and Upper Bounds for Action Elimination in MDP Planning
Abstract. We describe a way to improve the performance of MDP planners by modifying them to use lower and upper bounds to eliminate non-optimal actions during their search. First, ...

Tailoring Solver-Independent Constraint Models: A Case Study with Essence' and Minion
In order to apply constraint programming to a particular domain, the problem must first be modelled as a constraint satisfaction problem. There are typically many alternative mode...

Approximate Model-Based Diagnosis Using Greedy Stochastic Search
Most algorithms for computing diagnoses within a modelbased diagnosis framework are deterministic. Such algorithms guarantee soundness and completeness, but are NPhard. To overcom...

DFS-Tree Based Heuristic Search
Abstract. In constraint satisfaction, local search is an incomplete method for finding a solution to a problem. Solving a general constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is known to...
