Using Inferred Disjunctive Constraints To Decompose Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Constraint satisfaction problems involve finding values for problem variables that satisfy constraints on what combinations of values are permitted. They have applications in many...

Diagnosing and Solving Over-Determined Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Constraint relaxation is a frequently used technique for managing over-determined constraint satisfaction problems. A problem in constraint relaxation is the selection of the appr...

Solution Reuse in Dynamic Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Many AI problems can be modeled as constraint satisfaction problems (CSP), but many of them are actually dynamic: the set of constraints to consider evolves because of the environ...

Small is Beautiful: A Brute-Force Approach to Learning First-Order Formulas
We describe a method for learning formulas in firstorder logic using a brute-force, smallest-first search. The method is exceedingly simple. It generates all irreducible well-form...

Agent Cooperation Can Compensate For Agent Ignorance in Constraint Satisfaction
A team of constraint agents with diverse viewpoints canfind a solution to a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) whenthe individual agents have an incomplete viewof the problem.I...

Extending GENET to Solve Fuzzy Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Despite much research that has been done on constraint satisfaction problems (CSP's), the framework is sometimes inflexible and the results are not very satisfactory when app...

Amalgams of Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Many of standard practical techniques of solving constraint satisfaction problems use various decomposition methods to represent a problem as a combination of smaller ones. We stu...
