在本文中,我们提出sQueezeBF,一个有效的预处理器QBF,结合各种技术,消除变量和/或冗余的条款。特别是sQueezeBF结合了(i)通过Q-解析的变量消除,(ii)通过等价替换的变量消除和(iii)通过等价重写的等价破坏。实验分析表明,sQueezeBF可以产生显着减少的条款和/或变量的数量-的点,一些实例直接解决sQueezeBF -它可以显着提高效率的一系列国家的最先进的QBF求解器-的点,一些实例不能解决没有sQueezeBF预处理。
In this paper we present sQueezeBF, an effective preprocessor for QBFs that combines various techniques for eliminating variables and/or redundant clauses. In particular sQueezeBF combines (i) variable elimination via Q-resolution, (ii) variable elimination via equivalence substitution and (iii) equivalence breaking via equivalence rewriting. The experimental analysis shows that sQueezeBF can produce significant reductions in the number of clauses and/or variables - up to the point that some instances are solved directly by sQueezeBF - and that it can significantly improve the efficiency of a range of state-of-the-art QBF solvers - up to the point that some instances cannot be solved without sQueezeBF preprocessing.
