Universal Algebra and Hardness Results for Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present algebraic conditions on constraint languages Γ that ensure the hardness of the constraint satisfaction problem CSP(Γ) for complexity classes L, NL, P, NP and ModpL. Th...

On the Computation of Local Interchangeability in Discrete Constraint Satisfaction Problems
In [4], Freuderdefines several types of interchangeability to capture the equivalenceamongthe valuesof a variable in a discrete constraint satisfaction problem(CSP), and provides ...

A Characterisation of First-Order Constraint Satisfaction Problems
Abstract. We describe simple algebraic and combinatorial characterisations of finite relational core structures admitting finitely many obstructions. As a consequence, we show th...

Ants can solve constraint satisfaction problems
In this paper, we describe a new incomplete approach for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) based on the ant colony optimization (ACO) metaheuristic. The idea is to us...

Visual analogy: Viewing analogical retrieval and mapping as constraint satisfaction problems
The core issue of analogical reasoning is the transfer of relational knowledge from a source case to a target problem. Visual analogical reasoning pertains to problems containing ...
