We define a number of original encodings, called regular encodings, that map Max-CSP instances into Partial MaxSAT instances. First, we obtain new direct and (minimal) support en...
Abstract. This work considers the problem of approximating fixed predicate constraint satisfaction problems (MAX k-CSP(P)). We show that if the set of assignments accepted by P co...
We consider a random subgraph Gp of a host graph G formed by retaining each edge of G with probability p. We address the question of determining the critical value p (as a function...
We study the problem of identifying prices to support a given allocation of items to bidders in an envy-free way. A bidder will envy another bidder if she would prefer to obtain th...
We propose an empirical, perception-based evaluation approach for assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of longstanding cartographic design principles applied to 2D map displa...
