Many lower bound computation methods for branch and bound Max-SAT solvers can be explained as procedures that search for disjoint inconsistent subformulas in the Max-SAT instance ...
We propose a new incomplete algorithm for the Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSAT) problem on unweighted Boolean formulas, focused specifically on instances for which proving unsatis...
We investigate the role of cycles structures (i.e., subsets of clauses of the form ¯l1 ∨ l2, ¯l1 ∨ l3, ¯l2 ∨ ¯l3) in the quality of the lower bound (LB) of modern MaxSAT ...
In MaxSat, we ask for an assignment which satisfies the maximum number of clauses for a boolean formula in CNF. We present an algorithm yielding a run time upper bound of O (2 K 6....
Abstract. We present a new generic problem solving approach for overconstrained problems based on Max-SAT. We first define a clausal form formalism that deals with blocks of clau...
