Automatic Generation of Crossword Puzzles
Crossword puzzles are used everyday by millions of people for entertainment, but have applications also in educational and rehabilitation contexts. Unfortunately, the generation of ad-hoc puzzles, especially on specific subjects, typically requires a great deal of human expert work. This paper presents the architecture of WebCrow-generation, a system that is able to generate crosswords with no ...
متن کاملSearch Lessons Learned from Crossword Puzzles Search Lessons Learned from Crossword Puzzles
The construction of a program that generates crossword puzzles is discussed. The aim of this research is to draw conclusions that apply to conjunctive search generally, and the experimental results obtained in the crossword-puzzle domain lead us to the following: (1) Lookahead is extremely important when solving conjunctive queries, (2) Compile-time control of search is far less eeective than i...
متن کاملOn Two-Dimensional Arrays and Crossword Puzzles
We consider large two-dimensional arrays where each row and each column must satisfy certain constraints. We relate this problem to an assertion made by Shannon regarding the existence of large two-dimensional crossword puzzles. One-dimensional constrained sequences. We begin by considering an alphabet containing M symbols and one-dimensional sequences of these symbols that satisfy a set of wel...
متن کاملConstraint Programming Lessons Learned from Crossword Puzzles
Constraint programming is a methodology for solving difficult combinatorial problems. In the methodology, one makes three design decisions: the constraint model, the search algorithm for solving the model, and the heuristic for guiding the search. Previous work has shown that the three design decisions can greatly influence the efficiency of a constraint programming approach. However, what has ...
