Responsible: Christian Bessiere (CNRS Research Director), Laboratory of Informatics, Robotics and Microelectronics of Montpellier (LIRMM,) Montpellier, France. PhD Research Project: Sept 2009-Nov 2013 University of Western Macedonia Efficient algorithms for Strong Local Consistencies and Adaptive Techniques in Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs): research on the Constraint Programming (CP) area of Artificial Intelligence. Specifically, it focuses on the development of efficient filtering algorithms for strong local consistencies that advance relevant existing propagation methods for binary and non-binary CSPs. Adaptive propagation techniques are also proposed, for the automatic selection of the appropriate propagation algorithm during search. The new algorithms combined with adaptive techniques exploit the filtering power of strong local consistencies in an effective manner in order to further increase the efficacy of CP solvers.
