Solving Max-SAT as Weighted CSP [chapter]

Simon de Givry, Javier Larrosa, Pedro Meseguer, Thomas Schiex
2003 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
We then solve Max-SAT instances using state-of-the-art algorithms for weighted Max-CSP, dedicated Max-SAT solvers and the state-of-the-art MIP solver CPLEX.  ...  In this paper, we show how Max-SAT can be encoded as a weighted constraint network, either directly or using a dual encoding.  ...  In this paper, we model the Max-SAT problem as a weighted CSP.  ...

Encoding Max-CSP into Partial Max-SAT

Josep Argelich, Alba Cabiscol, In Lynce, Felip Many
2008 Proceedings - International Symposium on Multiple-Value Logic  
We define a number of original encodings that map Max-CSP instances into Partial Max-SAT instances. Our encodings rely on the well-known direct and support encodings from CSP into SAT.  ...  Moreover, we define a new variant of the support encoding from CSP into SAT which produces fewer clauses than the standard support encoding. *  ...  As benchmarks we considered binary CSPs, which were obtained with a generator of uniform random binary CSPs 2 1 In weighted Max-CSP (Max-SAT), each constraint (clause) has a weight and the goal is to  ...

2006 Journal of Heuristics  
We present a new generic problem solving approach for over-constrained problems based on Max-SAT.  ...  Finally, we report an experimental investigation on a representative sample of instances (random 2-SAT, Max-CSP, graph coloring, pigeon hole and quasigroup completion) which provides experimental evidence  ...  Weighted Max-SAT and Max-CSP encodings All the benchmarks encoded as Soft CNF formulas were also encoded as Boolean weighted Max-SAT instances in order to compare our solvers with Boolean weighted Max-SAT  ...

Optimal 2-constraint satisfaction via sum–product algorithms

Mikko Koivisto
2006 Information Processing Letters  
As a corollary, MAX-2-SAT can be solved in O * (nm1.732 n ) time.  ...  We show that for a given set of m pairwise constraints over n variables, a variable assignment that satisfies maximally many m constraints (MAX-2-CSP) can be found in O * (nm d nω/3 ) time, where d is  ...  Thus, if an algorithm solves MAX-k-CSP, it trivially solves MAX-k-SAT as well.  ...
