Plotting: A Planning Problem with Complex Transitions

Authors: Joan Espasa, Ian Miguel, and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 235, 28th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2022)

Abstract
We focus on a planning problem based on Plotting, a tile-matching puzzle video game published by Taito. The objective of the game is to remove at least a certain number of coloured blocks from a grid by sequentially shooting blocks into the same grid. The interest and difficulty of Plotting is due to the complex transitions after every shot: various blocks are affected directly, while others can be indirectly affected by gravity. We highlight the difficulties and inefficiencies of modelling and solving Plotting using PDDL, the de-facto standard language for AI planners. We also provide two constraint models that are able to capture the inherent complexities of the problem. In addition, we provide a set of benchmark instances, an instance generator and an extensive experimental comparison demonstrating solving performance with SAT, CP, MIP and a state-of-the-art AI planner.

Term-Graph Anti-Unification

Authors: Alexander Baumgartner, Temur Kutsia, Jordi Levy, and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 108, 3rd International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2018)

Abstract
We study anti-unification for possibly cyclic, unranked term-graphs and develop an algorithm, which computes a minimal complete set of generalizations for them. For bisimilar graphs the algorithm computes the join in the lattice generated by a functional bisimulation. These results generalize anti-unification for ranked and unranked terms to the corresponding term-graphs, and solve also anti-unification problems for rational terms and dags. Our results open a way to widen anti-unification based code clone detection techniques from a tree representation to a graph representation of the code.

Nominal Anti-Unification

Authors: Alexander Baumgartner, Temur Kutsia, Jordi Levy, and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 36, 26th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2015)

Abstract
We study nominal anti-unification, which is concerned with computing least general generalizations for given terms-in-context. In general, the problem does not have a least general solution, but if the set of atoms permitted in generalizations is finite, then there exists a least general generalization which is unique modulo variable renaming and alpha-equivalence. We present an algorithm that computes it. The algorithm relies on a subalgorithm that constructively decides equivariance between two terms-in-context. We prove soundness and completeness properties of both algorithms and analyze their complexity. Nominal anti-unification can be applied to problems where generalization of first-order terms is needed (inductive learning, clone detection, etc.), but bindings are involved.

A Variant of Higher-Order Anti-Unification

Authors: Alexander Baumgartner, Temur Kutsia, Jordi Levy, and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 21, 24th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA 2013)

Abstract
We present a rule-based Huet's style anti-unification algorithm for simply-typed lambda-terms in eta-long beta-normal form, which computes a least general higher-order pattern generalization. For a pair of arbitrary terms of the same type, such a generalization always exists and is unique modulo alpha-equivalence and variable renaming. The algorithm computes it in cubic time within linear space. It has been implemented and the code is freely available.

Anti-Unification for Unranked Terms and Hedges

Authors: Temur Kutsia, Jordi Levy, and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 10, 22nd International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA'11) (2011)

Abstract
We study anti-unification for unranked terms and hedges that may contain term and hedge variables. The anti-unification problem of two hedges ~s_1 and ~s_2 is concerned with finding their generalization, a hedge ~q such that both ~s_1 and ~s_2 are instances of ~q under some substitutions. Hedge variables help to fill in gaps in generalizations, while term variables abstract single (sub)terms with different top function symbols. First, we design a complete and minimal algorithm to compute least general generalizations. Then, we improve the efficiency of the algorithm by restricting possible alternatives permitted in the generalizations. The restrictions are imposed with the help of a rigidity function that is a parameter in the improved algorithm and selects certain common subsequences from the hedges to be generalized. Finally, we indicate a possible application of the algorithm in software engineering.

An Efficient Nominal Unification Algorithm

Authors: Jordi Levy and Mateu Villaret

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 6, Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (2010)

Abstract
Nominal Unification is an extension of first-order unification where terms can contain binders and unification is performed modulo alpha-equivalence. Here we prove that the existence of nominal unifiers can be decided in quadratic time. First, we linearly-reduce nominal unification problems to a sequence of freshness and equalities between atoms, modulo a permutation, using ideas as Paterson and Wegman for first-order unification. Second, we prove that solvability of these reduced problems may be checked in quadratic time. Finally, we point out how using ideas of Brown and Tarjan for unbalanced merging, we could solve these reduced problems more efficiently.
