Classification with a large number of classes is a key problem in machine learning and corresponds to many real-world applications like tagging of images or textual documents in social networks. If one-vs-all methods usually reach top…
The operation of a system, such as a vehicle, communication network or automatic process, heavily depends on the correct operation of its components. A Stochastic Binary System (SBS) mathematically models the behavior of on-off systems,…
This article discusses ability of Linear Programming models to be used as solvers of NP-complete problems. Integer Linear Programming is known as NP-complete problem, but non-integer Linear Programming problems can be solved in polynomial…
Symmetry breaking is a widely popular approach to enhance solvers in constraint programming, such as those for SAT or MIP. Symmetry breaking predicates (SBPs) typically impose an order on variables and single out the lexicographic leader…
In this paper we obtain complexity bounds for computational problems on algebraic power series over several commuting variables. The power series are specified by systems of polynomial equations: a formalism closely related to weighted…
Intuitively, if we can prove that a program terminates, we expect some conclusion regarding its complexity. But the passage from termination proofs to complexity bounds is not always clear. In this work we consider Monotonicity Constraint…
We present a Rice-like complexity lower bound for any MSO-definable problem on binary structures succinctly encoded by circuits. This work extends the framework recently developed as a counterpoint to Courcelle's theorem for graphs encoded…
We produce a class of $\omega$-categorical structures with finite signature by applying a model-theoretic construction -- a refinement of the Hrushosvki-encoding -- to $\omega$-categorical structures in a possibly infinite signature. We…
Today's propositional satisfiability (SAT) solvers are extremely powerful and can be used as an efficient back-end for solving NP-complete problems. However, many fundamental problems in knowledge representation and reasoning are located at…
Theories of classification distinguish classes with some good structure theorem from those for which none is possible. Some classes (dense linear orders, for instance) are non-classifiable in general, but are classifiable when we consider…
We investigate the parameterized complexity of Binary CSP parameterized by the vertex cover number and the treedepth of the constraint graph, as well as by a selection of related modulator-based parameters. The main findings are as follows:…
We study the efficient approximability of basic graph and logic problems in the literature when instances are specified hierarchically as in \cite{Le89} or are specified by 1-dimensional finite narrow periodic specifications as in…
We investigate array separation logic (ASL), a variant of symbolic-heap separation logic in which the data structures are either pointers or arrays, i.e., contiguous blocks of allocated memory. This logic provides a language for…
In this manuscript, we derive the principle of conservation of computational complexity. We measure computational complexity as the number of binary computations (decisions) required to solve a problem. Every problem then defines a unique…
Deciding whether a graph can be embedded in a grid using only unit-length edges is NP-complete, even when restricted to binary trees. However, it is not difficult to devise a number of graph classes for which the problem is polynomial, even…
The binary Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) is to decide whether there exists an assignment to a set of variables which satisfies specified constraints between pairs of variables. A binary CSP instance can be presented as a labelled…
$\{log\}$ is a programming language at the intersection of Constraint Logic Programming, set programming and declarative programming. But $\{log\}$ is also a satisfiability solver for a theory of finite sets and finite binary relations.…
For lack of general algorithmic methods that apply to wide classes of logics, establishing a complexity bound for a given modal logic is often a laborious task. The present work is a step towards a general theory of the complexity of modal…
Given a satisfiable instance of 1-in-3 SAT, it is NP-hard to find a satisfying assignment for it, but it may be possible to efficiently find a solution subject to a weaker (not necessarily Boolean) predicate than `1-in-3'. There is a…
The subject logic in computer science should entail proof theoretic applications. So the question arises whether open problems in computational complexity can be solved by advanced proof theoretic techniques. In particular, consider the…
