Machine Learning Algorithms for Assisting Solvers for Constraint Satisfaction Problems

This survey proposes a unifying conceptual framework and taxonomy that systematically integrates Machine Learning (ML) and Reinforcement Learning (RL) with classical paradigms for Constraint Satisfaction and Boolean Satisfiability solving. Unlike prior reviews that focus on individual applications, we organize the literature around solver architecture, linking each major phase—constraint propagation, heuristic decision-making, conflict analysis, and meta-level … Read more
