In this paper we study complexity of an extension of ordered binary decision diagrams (OBDDs) called $c$-OBDDs on CNFs of bounded (primal graph) treewidth. In particular, we show that for each $k$ there is a class of CNFs of treewidth $k…
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. Both models are known to be of FPT size for CNFs of bounded primal…
We introduce Tree Decision Diagrams (TDD) as a model for Boolean functions that generalizes OBDD. They can be seen as a restriction of structured d-DNNF; that is, d-DNNF that respect a vtree $T$. We show that TDDs enjoy the same…
We prove the existence of two thresholds regarding the compilability of random 2-CNF formulas to OBDDs. The formulas are drawn from $\mathcal{F}_2(n,\delta n)$, the uniform distribution over all 2-CNFs with $\delta n$ clauses and $n$…
We show unconditional parameterized lower bounds in the area of knowledge compilation, more specifically on the size of circuits in decomposable negation normal form (DNNF) that encode CNF-formulas restricted by several graph width…
We present new results on the size of OBDD representations of structurally characterized classes of CNF formulas. First, we identify a natural sufficient condition, which we call the few subterms property, for a class of CNFs to have…

We consider the compilation of a binary neural network's decision function into tractable representations such as Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs) and Sentential Decision Diagrams (SDDs). Obtaining this function as an OBDD/SDD…

In this paper we prove a space lower bound of $n^{\Omega(k)}$ for non-deterministic (syntactic) read-once branching programs ({\sc nrobp}s) on functions expressible as {\sc cnf}s with treewidth at most $k$ of their primal graphs. This lower…
The field of knowledge compilation establishes the tractability of many tasks by studying how to compile them to Boolean circuit classes obeying some requirements such as structuredness, decomposability, and determinism. However, in other…
We generalize many results concerning the tractability of SAT and #SAT on bounded treewidth CNF-formula in the context of Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF). To this end, we start by studying the notion of width for OBDD and observe that the…
Inspired by the recently introduced framework of AND/OR search spaces for graphical models, we propose to augment Multi-Valued Decision Diagrams (MDD) with AND nodes, in order to capture function decomposition structure and to extend these…
Decision diagrams for classification have some notable advantages over decision trees, as their internal connections can be determined at training time and their width is not bound to grow exponentially with their depth. Accordingly,…
In this paper we study syntactic branching programs of bounded repetition representing CNFs of bounded treewidth. For this purpose we introduce two new structural graph parameters $d$-pathwidth and clique preserving $d$-pathwidth denoted by…
We present an efficient fixed-parameter algorithm for #SAT parameterized by the incidence treewidth, i.e., the treewidth of the bipartite graph whose vertices are the variables and clauses of the given CNF formula; a variable and a clause…

We consider bounded width CNF-formulas where the width is measured by popular graph width measures on graphs associated to CNF-formulas. Such restricted graph classes, in particular those of bounded treewidth, have been extensively studied…
