Preprocessing Expression-Based Constraint Satisfaction Problems for Stochastic Local Search
Abstract. This work presents methods for processing a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) formulated by an expression-based language, before the CSP is presented to a stochastic ...

Unbiased Statistics of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem - a Controlled-Bias Generator
: We show that estimating the complexity (mean and distribution) of the instances of a fixed size Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) can be very hard. We deal with the main two ...

Maintenance scheduling problems as benchmarks for constraint algorithms
The paper focuses on evaluating constraint satisfaction search algorithms on application based random problem instances. The application we use is a well-studied problem in the el...

Random Constraint Satisfaction: Theory Meets Practice
Abstract. We study the experimental consequences of a recent theoretical result by Achlioptas et al. that shows that conventional models of random problems are trivially insoluble ...

A Probabilistic Algorithm for k-SAT and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present a simple probabilistic algorithm for solving kSAT, and more generally, for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). The algorithm follows a simple localsearch pa...
