Constraint Modelling with LLMs Using In-Context Learning

Authors: Kostis Michailidis, Dimos Tsouros, and Tias Guns

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 307, 30th International Conference on Principles and Practice of Constraint Programming (CP 2024)


Abstract
Constraint Programming (CP) allows for the modelling and solving of a wide range of combinatorial problems. However, modelling such problems using constraints over decision variables still requires significant expertise, both in conceptual thinking and syntactic use of modelling languages. In this work, we explore the potential of using pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) as coding assistants, to transform textual problem descriptions into concrete and executable CP specifications. We present different transformation pipelines with explicit intermediate representations, and we investigate the potential benefit of various retrieval-augmented example selection strategies for in-context learning. We evaluate our approach on 2 datasets from the literature, namely NL4Opt (optimisation) and Logic Grid Puzzles (satisfaction), and a heterogeneous set of exercises from a CP course. The results show that pre-trained LLMs have promising potential for initialising the modelling process, with retrieval-augmented in-context learning significantly enhancing their modelling capabilities.

AlfaPang: Alignment Free Algorithm for Pangenome Graph Construction

Authors: Adam Cicherski, Anna Lisiecka, and Norbert Dojer

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 312, 24th International Workshop on Algorithms in Bioinformatics (WABI 2024)


Abstract
The success of pangenome-based approaches to genomics analysis depends largely on the existence of efficient methods for constructing pangenome graphs that are applicable to large genome collections. In the current paper we present AlfaPang, a new pangenome graph building algorithm. AlfaPang is based on a novel alignment-free approach that allows to construct pangenome graphs using significantly less computational resources than state-of-the-art tools. The code of AlfaPang is freely available at https://github.com/AdamCicherski/AlfaPang.

The Flower Calculus

Authors: Pablo Donato

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 299, 9th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2024)


Abstract
We introduce the flower calculus, a deep inference proof system for intuitionistic first-order logic inspired by Peirce’s existential graphs. It works as a rewriting system over inductive objects called "flowers", that enjoy both a graphical interpretation as topological diagrams, and a textual presentation as nested sequents akin to coherent formulas. Importantly, the calculus dispenses completely with the traditional notion of symbolic connective, operating solely on nested flowers containing atomic predicates. We prove both the soundness of the full calculus and the completeness of an analytic fragment with respect to Kripke semantics. This provides to our knowledge the first analyticity result for a proof system based on existential graphs, adapting semantic cut-elimination techniques to a deep inference setting. Furthermore, the kernel of rules targetted by completeness is fully invertible, a desirable property for both automated and interactive proof search.

Contention Resolution Without Collision Detection: Constant Throughput And Logarithmic Energy

Authors: Gianluca De Marco, Dariusz R. Kowalski, and Grzegorz Stachowiak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 246, 36th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2022)


Abstract
A shared channel, also called a multiple access channel, is among the most popular and widely studied models of communication in distributed computing. An unknown number of stations (potentially unbounded) is connected to the channel and can communicate by transmitting and listening. A message is successfully transmitted on the channel if and only if there is a unique transmitter at that time; otherwise the message collides with some other transmission and nothing is sensed by the participating stations. We consider the general framework without collision detection and in which any participating station can join the channel at any moment. The contention resolution task is to let each of the contending stations to broadcast successfully its message on the channel. In this setting we present the first algorithm which exhibits asymptotically optimal Θ(1) throughput and only an O(log k) energy cost, understood as the maximum number of transmissions performed by a single station (where k is the number of participating stations, initially unknown). We also show that such efficiency cannot be reproduced by non-adaptive algorithms, i.e., whose behavior does not depend on the channel history (for example, classic backoff protocols). Namely, we show that non-adaptive algorithms cannot simultaneously achieve throughput Ω(1/polylog(k)) and energy O((log² k)/(log log k)²).

Brief Announcement
Brief Announcement: Deterministic Contention Resolution on a Shared Channel

Authors: Gianluca De Marco, Dariusz R. Kowalski, and Grzegorz Stachowiak

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 121, 32nd International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2018)


Abstract
A shared channel, also called multiple-access channel, is one of the fundamental communication models. Autonomous entities communicate over a shared medium, and one of the main challenges is how to efficiently resolve collisions occurring when more than one entity attempts to access the channel at the same time. In this work we explore the impact of asynchrony, knowledge (or linear estimate) of the number of contenders, and acknowledgments, on both latency and channel utilization for the Contention resolution problem with non-adaptive deterministic algorithms.

Anonymous Processors with Synchronous Shared Memory: Monte Carlo Algorithms

Authors: Bogdan S. Chlebus, Gianluca De Marco, and Muhammed Talo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 95, 21st International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2017)


Abstract
We consider synchronous distributed systems in which processors communicate by shared read- write variables. Processors are anonymous and do not know their number n. The goal is to assign individual names by all the processors to themselves. We develop algorithms that accomplish this for each of the four cases determined by the following independent properties of the model: concurrently attempting to write distinct values into the same shared memory register either is allowed or not, and the number of shared variables either is a constant or it is unbounded. For each such a case, we give a Monte Carlo algorithm that runs in the optimum expected time and uses the expected number of O(n log n) random bits. All our algorithms produce correct output upon termination with probabilities that are 1−n^{−Ω(1)}, which is best possible when terminating almost surely and using O(n log n) random bits.
