Abstract

In this paper we show that the clique concept can be exploited in order to solve Max-CSP. We present a clique inference process which leads to construct linear systems useful for computing new lower bounds. The clique inference process is introduced in the PFC-MPRDAC[5] algorithm and the obtained algorithm is called PFC-MPRDAC+CBB (CBB for Clique Based Bound). The carried out experiments have shown that PFC-MPRDAC+CBB leads to obtain very encouraging results.
