A Greedy Approach to Establish Singleton Arc Consistency

In this paper, we propose a new approach to establish Singleton Arc Consistency (SAC) on constraint networks. While the principle of existing SAC algorithms involves performing a breadth-first search up to a depth equal to 1, the principle of the two algorithms introduced in this paper involves performing several runs of a greedy search (where at each step, arc consistency is maintained). It is...

A fast algorithm to establish arc-consistency in constraint networks

In [1], Bessière and Cordier said that the AC-6 arc-consistency algorithm is optimal in time on constraint networks where nothing is known about the constraint semantics. However, in constraint networks, it is always assumed that constraints are symmetric. None of the previous algorithms achieving arc-consistency (AC-3, AC-4, AC-6) use this property. We propose here an improved version of AC-6 ...

Empirical tests on BioHashing

Given the recent explosion of interest in human authentication, verification based on tokenised pseudo-random numbers and userspecific biometric feature (BioHashing) has received much attention. The purpose of our paper is to investigate the pros and the cons of BioHashing. In particular we study: how to combine BioHashing in a multi-modal fusion approach based on the integration of face and fi...

Empirical generalizations of demand and supply dynamics for movies

a r t i c l e i n f o High financial risks in production and marketing, the hedonic nature of products, and the global cultural relevance of movies have encouraged a substantial number of researchers to analyze the success drivers of movies. This research provides empirical generalizations in managing the supply and demand of motion pictures. Prior empirical research either ignored the endogene...
