An information-based neural approach to generic constraint satisfaction

Författare

Summary, in English

A novel artificial neural network heuristic (INN) for general constraint satisfaction problems is presented. extending a recently suggested method restricted to boolean variables. In contrast to conventional ANN methods, it employs a particular type of non-polynomial cost function, based on the information balance between variables and constraints in a mean-field setting. Implemented as an annealing algorithm, the method is numerically explored on a testbed of Graph Coloring problems. The performance is comparable to that of dedicated heuristics, and clearly superior to that of conventional mean-field annealing.
