Preprocessing in SAT-Based Multi-Objective Combinatorial Optimization

Authors: Christoph Jabs, Jeremias Berg, Hannes Ihalainen, and Matti Järvisalo

Abstract
Building on Boolean satisfiability (SAT) and maximum satisfiability (MaxSAT) solving algorithms, several approaches to computing Pareto-optimal MaxSAT solutions under multiple objectives have been recently proposed. However, preprocessing in (Max)SAT-based multi-objective optimization remains so-far unexplored. Generalizing clause redundancy to the multi-objective setting, we establish provably-correct liftings of MaxSAT preprocessing techniques for multi-objective MaxSAT in terms of computing Pareto-optimal solutions. We also establish preservation of Pareto-MCSes - the multi-objective lifting of minimal correction sets tightly connected to optimal MaxSAT solutions - as a distinguishing feature between different redundancy notions in the multi-objective setting. Furthermore, we provide a first empirical evaluation of the effect of preprocessing on instance sizes and multi-objective MaxSAT solvers.

MaxSAT-Based Bi-Objective Boolean Optimization

Authors: Christoph Jabs, Jeremias Berg, Andreas Niskanen, and Matti Järvisalo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 236, 25th International Conference on Theory and Applications of Satisfiability Testing (SAT 2022)


Abstract
We explore a maximum satisfiability (MaxSAT) based approach to bi-objective optimization. Bi-objective optimization refers to the task of finding so-called Pareto-optimal solutions in terms of two objective functions. Bi-objective optimization problems naturally arise in various real-world settings. For example, in the context of learning interpretable representations, such as decision rules, from data, one wishes to balance between two objectives, the classification error and the size of the representation. Our approach is generally applicable to bi-objective optimizations which allow for propositional encodings. The approach makes heavy use of incremental Boolean satisfiability (SAT) solving and draws inspiration from modern MaxSAT solving approaches. In particular, we describe several variants of the approach which arise from different approaches to MaxSAT solving. In addition to computing a single representative solution per each point of the Pareto front, the approach allows for enumerating all Pareto-optimal solutions. We empirically compare the efficiency of the approach to recent competing approaches, showing practical benefits of our approach in the contexts of learning interpretable classification rules and bi-objective set covering.
