Variable Elimination in Binary CSP via Forbidden Patterns

A variable elimination rule allows the polynomialtime identification of certain variables whose elimination does not affect the satisfiability of an instance. Variable elimination in the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be used in preprocessing or during search to reduce search space size. We show that there are essentially just four variable elimination rules defined by forbidding gen...

Hybrid tractability of soft constraint problems

The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a central generic problem in computer science and artificial intelligence: it provides a common framework for many theoretical problems as well as for many real-life applications. Soft constraint problems are a generalisation of the CSP which allow the user to model optimisation problems. Considerable effort has been made in identifying properties wh...

Hybrid tractability of valued constraint problems

The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a central generic problem in computer science and artificial intelligence: it provides a common framework for many theoretical problems as well as for many real-life applications. Soft constraint problems are a generalisation of the CSP which allow the user to model optimisation problems. Considerable effort has been made in identifying properties wh...

A New Hybrid Tractable Class of Soft Constraint Problems

The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a central generic problem in artificial intelligence. Considerable effort has been made in identifying properties which ensure tractability in such problems. In this paper we study hybrid tractability of soft constraint problems; that is, properties which guarantee tractability of the given soft constraint problem, but properties which do not depend ...

Variable and value elimination in binary constraint satisfaction via forbidden patterns

Variable or value elimination in a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be used in preprocessing or during search to reduce search space size. A variable elimination rule (value elimination rule) allows the polynomial-time identification of certain variables (domain elements) whose elimination, without the introduction of extra compensatory constraints, does not affect the satisfiability o...
