Pseudo-Boolean Constraints from a Knowledge Representation Perspective
Abstract
We study pseudo-Boolean constraints (PBC) and their special case cardinality constraints (CARD) from the perspective of knowledge representation. To this end, the succinctness of PBC and CARD is compared to that of many standard propositional languages. Moreover, we determine which queries and transformations are feasible in polynomial time when knowledge is represented by PBC or CARD, and which are not (unconditionally or unless P = NP). In particular, the advantages and disadvantages compared to CNF are discussed.
