Partial Symmetry Breaking
In this paper we define partial symmetry breaking, a concept that has been used in many previous papers without being the main topic of any research. This paper is the first systematic study of partial symmetry breaking in constraint programming. We show experimentally that performing symmetry breaking with only a subset of all symmetries can result in greatly reduced run-times. We also look at...
متن کاملTowards breaking more composition symmetries in partial symmetry breaking
The paper proposes a dynamic method, Recursive Symmetry Breaking During Search (ReSBDS), for efficient partial symmetry breaking. We first demonstrate how Partial Symmetry Breaking During Search (ParSBDS) misses important pruning opportunities when given only a subset of symmetries to break. The investigation pinpoints the culprit and in turn suggests rectification. The main idea is to add extr...
متن کاملStatic Symmetry Breaking with the Reflex Ordering
LexLeader, a state of the art static symmetry breaking method, adds a lex ordering constraint for each variable symmetry of the problem to select the lexicographically least solution. In practice, the same method can also be used for partial symmetry breaking by breaking only a given subset of symmetries. We propose a new total ordering, reflex, as basis of a new symmetry breaking constraint th...
متن کاملBreaking More Composition Symmetries Using Search Heuristics
The pruning power of partial symmetry breaking depends on the given subset of symmetries to break as well as the interactions among symmetry breaking constraints. In the context of Partial Symmetry Breaking During Search (ParSBDS), the search order determines the set of symmetry breaking constraints to add and thus also makes an impact on node and solution pruning. In this paper, we give the fi...
متن کاملBreaking symmetries in all different problems
Adding symmetry breaking constraints is one of the oldest ways of breaking variable symmetries for CSPs. For instance, it is well known that all the symmetries for the pigeon hole problem can be removed by ordering the variables. We have generalized this result to all CSPs where the variables are subject to an all different constraint. In such case it is possible to remove all variable symmetri...
