TLDR
A refinement to a well‐known selection algorithm is described, which results in a useful improvement in the performance of the original algorithm, particularly when the selection index is small relative to the median.

SATzilla: portfolio-based algorithm selection for SAT

TL;DR: SATzilla is described, an automated approach for constructing per-instance algorithm portfolios for SAT that use so-called empirical hardness models to choose among their constituent solvers and is improved by integrating local search solvers as candidate solvers, by predicting performance score instead of runtime, and by using hierarchical hardness models that take into account different types of SAT instances.
