Abstract. In constraint satisfaction, a general rule is to tackle the hardest part of a search problem first. In this paper, we introduce a parameter (τ) that measures the constr...
When a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) admits no solution, most current solvers express that the whole search space has been explored unsuccessfully but do not exhibit which...
Abstract. We proposed a new search heuristic using the scuba diving metaphor. This approach is based on the concept of evolvability and tends to exploit neutrality which exists in ...
GP uses trees to represent chromosomes. The user defines the representation space by defining the set of functions and terminals to label the nodes in the trees, and GP searches t...
Methods based on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) typically use a Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) representation of the Boolean formula, and exploit the structure of the given problem ...
