Evolutionary algorithms for the satisfiability problem

TL;DR: An empirical comparison on commonly used benchmarks is presented for the most successful evolutionary algorithms and for WSAT, a prominent local search algorithm for the satisfiability problem, indicating that evolutionary algorithms are competitive to WSAT.

Hybrid of genetic algorithm and local search to solve MAX-SAT problem using nVidia CUDA framework

TL;DR: This paper describes the challenges and design choices involved in parallelizing a hybrid of Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Local Search (LS) to solve MAXimum SATisfiability (MAX-SAT) problem on a state-of-the-art nVidia Tesla GPU usingnVidia Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA).

Genetic Algorithm Behavior in the MAXSAT Domain

TL;DR: This work has shown that all nonzero Walsh coefficients can be computed exactly for MAXSAT problems in polynomial time using only the clause information, and unless P=NP, this low order information cannot reliably lead to the global optimum, thus nontrivial MAXSat problems must be deceptive.

Representations, fitness functions and genetic operators for the satisfiability problem

TL;DR: In this paper, two genetic algorithms for SAT are presented, which mainly differ in the solution representation, i.e., the classical bit string representation and the path representation, with respect to their performance.

A new method for solving hard satisfiability problems

TL;DR: A greedy local search procedure called GSAT is introduced for solving propositional satisfiability problems and its good performance suggests that it may be advantageous to reformulate reasoning tasks that have traditionally been viewed as theorem-proving problems as model-finding tasks.

Hard and easy distributions of SAT problems

TL;DR: It is shown that by using the right distribution of instances, and appropriate parameter values, it is possible to generate random formulas that are hard, that is, for which satisfiability testing is quite difficult.
