Using DPLL for Efficient OBDD Construction
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Specifically, we propose two DPLL-based algorithms that construct OBDDs for CNF formulas. ...
We discuss the advantage of this new construction method over the traditional approach, where OBDDs for subsets of the CNF formula are built and conjoined. ...
Acknowledgment We wish to thank the anonymous reviewers for the SAT 2004 conference for commenting on an earlier version of this paper. ...

On the Relative Efficiency of DPLL and OBDDs with Axiom and Join
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Hence DPLL and OBDDs constructed using only the axiom and join rules are polynomially incomparable. ...
Especially, we show that OBDDs, even when constructed using only the rather weak axiom and join rules, can be exponentially more efficient than DPLL or, equivalently, tree-like resolution. ...
Another interesting question is the relative efficiency of tree-like and DAG-like OBDD aj proofs. Especially, the OBDD aj proofs constructed in Lemma 2 are not tree-like. ...

The Language of Search
2007
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
In particular, we show that several versions of exhaustive DPLL search correspond to such well-known languages as FBDD, OBDD, and a precisely-defined subset of d-DNNF. ...
By thus mapping search algorithms to propositional languages, we provide a uniform and practical framework in which successful search techniques can be harnessed for compilation of knowledge into various ...
We thank Rina Dechter and the anonymous reviewers for their feedback on earlier drafts of this paper. ...

Search vs. Symbolic Techniques in Satisfiability Solving
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Recent work has shown how to use OBDDs for satisfiability solving. ...
To that end, we conduct a direct comparison with the DPLL-based ZChaff, as well as evaluate a variety of optimization techniques for the symbolic approach. ...
In the last ten years, much progress have been made in developing highly optimized DPLL solvers, leading to efficient solvers such as ZChaff [46] and BerkMin [28] , all of which use advanced heuristics ...

Exploiting Functional Dependencies of Variables in All Solutions SAT Solvers
2017
Journal of Information Processing
Our solver is designed based on the OBDD compilation technique, which allows us to efficiently handle intractable CNFs with a number of solutions in dynamic programming manner. ...
CNF encoding, which translates original problems for AllSAT solvers, spawns many auxiliary variables and, what is worse, obscures functional dependencies over variables. ...
(c) Constructed OBDD with our method. Nodes of label 3 are eliminated because 3-rd variable, i.e., x 6 , is dominated. Cutsets are used for equivalence test. ...

Non-FPT lower bounds for structural restrictions of decision DNNF
[article]
2017
arXiv
pre-print
Both models are known to be of FPT size for CNFs of bounded primal treewidth. ...
We give a non-FPT lower bound on the size of structured decision DNNF and OBDD with decomposable AND-nodes representing CNF-formulas of bounded incidence treewidth. ...
Thus, for reasonable values of k, if the right elimination order and the right caching policy is chosen, exhaustive DPLL can solve these instances efficiently. ...

An Exhaustive DPLL Algorithm for Model Counting
2018
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
State-of-the-art model counters are based on exhaustive DPLL algorithms, and have been successfully used in probabilistic reasoning, one of the key problems in AI. ...
Furthermore, we obtain the first top-down SDD compiler, and show orders-of-magnitude improvements in SDD construction time against the existing bottom-up SDD compiler. ...
In fact, exhaustive DPLL (and its variants) can be seen as constructing a tree. ...

A Symbolic Search Based Approach for Quantified Boolean Formulas
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Using DPLL-likes (resp. local search) techniques, our approach gives rise to a complete QBDD(DPLL) (resp. incomplete QBDD(LS)) solver. ...
Many QBF solvers has been proposed, most of them perform decision tree search using the DPLL-like techniques. ...
For completeness and efficiency reasons, our approach is enhanced with two key features. ...

On the Relative Efficiency of Resolution-Like Proofs and Ordered Binary Decision Diagram Proofs
2008
2008 23rd Annual IEEE Conference on Computational Complexity
In particular, this system abstracts satisfiability algorithms based upon explicit construction of OBDDs and satisfiability algorithms based upon symbolic quantifier elimination. ...
We show that tree-like OBDD proofs of unsatisfiability require an exponential increase (s → 2 s Ω(1) ) in proof size to simulate unrestricted resolution, and that unrestricted OBDD proofs of unsatisfiability ...
DPLL with clause learning algorithms generate "DAGlike" derivations whereas existing OBDD-based solvers using explicit construction and symbolic quantifier elimination methods [19, 1, 38, 22, 44] construct ...

Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams, Pigeonhole Formulas and Beyond1
2010
Journal on Satisfiability, Boolean Modeling and Computation
We also present a family of CNFs that show an exponential blow-up for all OBDD refutations compared to unrestricted resolution refutations. ...
Here we show that an arbitrary OBDD refutation of the pigeonhole formula has exponential size: we prove that for any order of computation at least one intermediate OBDD in the proof has size Ω(1.14 n ) ...
They are often used as a standart benchmark for checking efficiency of (UN)SAT algorithms. ...
