On Subsumption Removal and On-the-Fly CNF Simplification
Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) Boolean formulas generated from resolution or solution enumeration often have much redundancy. It is desirable to have an efficient algorithm to simpl...

Random Walk with Continuously Smoothed Variable Weights
Many current local search algorithms for SAT fall into one of two classes. Random walk algorithms such as Walksat/SKC, Novelty+ and HWSAT are very successful but can be trapped for...

A Branch-and-Bound Algorithm for Extracting Smallest Minimal Unsatisfiable Formulas
We tackle the problem of finding a smallest-cardinality MUS (SMUS) of a given formula. The SMUS provides a succinct explanation of infeasibility and is valuable for applications th...

On Applying Cutting Planes in DLL-Based Algorithms for Pseudo-Boolean Optimization
The utilization of cutting planes is a key technique in Integer Linear Programming (ILP). However, cutting planes have seldom been applied in Pseudo-Boolean Optimization (PBO) algo...
