Class HTClause

java.lang.Object
  org.sat4j.minisat.constraints.cnf.HTClause

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Constr, Propagatable, IConstr

Direct Known Subclasses:

LearntHTClause, OriginalHTClause

public abstract class HTClause
extends Object
implements Constr, Serializable

Lazy data structure for clause using the Head Tail data structure from SATO, The original scheme is improved by avoiding moving pointers to literals but moving the literals themselves. We suppose here that the clause contains at least 3 literals. Use the BinaryClause or UnaryClause clause data structures to deal with binary and unit clauses.

2.1

Constructor Detail

HTClause

public HTClause(IVecInt ps,
                ILits voc)

Creates a new basic clause

Parameters:

voc - the vocabulary of the formula

ps - A VecInt that WILL BE EMPTY after calling that method.

Method Detail

calcReason

public void calcReason(int p,
                       IVecInt outReason)

Description copied from interface: Constr

Compute the reason for a given assignment. If the constraint is a clause, it is supposed to be either a unit clause or a falsified one.

Specified by:

calcReason in interface Constr

Parameters:

p - a satisfied literal (or Lit.UNDEFINED)

outReason - the list of falsified literals whose negation is the reason of the assignment of p to true.

remove

public void remove(UnitPropagationListener upl)

Description copied from interface: Constr

Remove a constraint from the solver.

Specified by:

remove in interface Constr

simplify

public boolean simplify()

Description copied from interface: Constr

Simplifies a constraint, by removing top level falsified literals for instance.

Specified by:

simplify in interface Constr

Returns:

true iff the constraint is satisfied and can be removed from the database.

propagate

public boolean propagate(UnitPropagationListener s,
                         int p)

Description copied from interface: Propagatable

Propagate the truth value of a literal in constraints in which that literal is falsified.

Specified by:

propagate in interface Propagatable

Parameters:

s - something able to perform unit propagation

p - the literal being propagated. Its negation must appear in the constraint.

Returns:

false iff an inconsistency (a contradiction) is detected.

locked

public boolean locked()

Description copied from interface: Constr

Indicate wether a constraint is responsible from an assignment.

Specified by:

locked in interface Constr

Returns:

true if a constraint is a "reason" for an assignment.

getActivity

public double getActivity()

Description copied from interface: IConstr

To obtain the activity of the constraint.

Specified by:

getActivity in interface IConstr

Returns:

the activity of the clause

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

get

public int get(int i)

Return the ith literal of the clause. Note that the order of the literals does change during the search...

Specified by:

get in interface IConstr

Parameters:

i - the index of the literal

Returns:

the literal

rescaleBy

public void rescaleBy(double d)

Description copied from interface: Constr

Rescale the clause activity by a value.

Specified by:

rescaleBy in interface Constr

Parameters:

d -

size

public int size()

Specified by:

size in interface IConstr

Returns:

the number of literals in the constraint.

assertConstraint

public void assertConstraint(UnitPropagationListener s)

Description copied from interface: Constr

Method called when the constraint is to be asserted. It means that the constraint was learnt during the search and it should now propagate some truth values. In the clausal case, only one literal should be propagated. In other cases, it might be different.

Specified by:

assertConstraint in interface Constr

Parameters:

s - a UnitPropagationListener to use for unit propagation.

getVocabulary

public ILits getVocabulary()

getLits

public int[] getLits()

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

canBePropagatedMultipleTimes

public boolean canBePropagatedMultipleTimes()

Description copied from interface: IConstr

Partition constraints into the ones that can only be found once on the trail (e.g. clauses) and the ones that can be found several times (e.g. cardinality constraints and pseudo-boolean constraints).

Specified by:

canBePropagatedMultipleTimes in interface IConstr

Returns:

true if the constraint can be used several times as a reason to propagate a literal.
