Revisiting Neighborhood Inverse Consistency on Binary CSPs

Résumé

Our goal is to investigate the definition and application of strong consistency properties on the dual graphs of binary Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). As a first step in that direction, we study the structure of the dual graph of binary CSPs, and show how it can be arranged in a triangle-shaped grid. We then study, in this context, Relational Neighborhood Inverse Consistency (RNIC), which is a con- sistency property that we had introduced for non-binary CSPs. We discuss how the structure of the dual graph of binary CSPs affects the consistency level enforced by RNIC. Then, we compare, both theoreti- cally and empirically, RNIC to Neighborhood Inverse Consistency (NIC) and strong Conservative Dual Consistency (sCDC), which are higher- level consistency properties useful for solving difficult problem instances. We show that all three properties are pairwise incomparable.
