Local search for Boolean Satisfiability with configuration checking and subscore

摘要

This paper presents and analyzes two new efficient local search strategies for the Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) problem. We start by proposing a local search strategy called configuration checking (CC) for SAT. The CC strategy results in a simple local search algorithm for SAT called Swcc, which shows promising experimental results on random 3-SAT instances, and outperforms TNM, the winner of SAT Competition 2009.
