In all particular case, we take the bottom left corner and that's the position of the square. ![]() That's what, the convention that you're going to use. It could be the top right corner if you want, but you have to choose one and that's where you going to basically. Okay the bottom left corner of one of every square. So, so if we try to solve that using you know a constraint program, we have first to decide what the decision variables are going to be, okay? And they're going to be either x and y coordinates of every one of these squares. It is very interesting, okay? So 20 minutes, okay? So and what I want, so this is one of the solutions, okay? You know won't let you look at it very quickly, you know, I won't let you look at it very long because I want you to be able to solve this puzzle so you can sleep right. I'll let you look at this thing and you can spend the next 20 minutes trying to put all these squares inside the big square. Okay? Now, I assume that you are completely bored at this point. Okay? So we have to pack them and arrange them in such a way that we make this big square. Okay, and so the goal here is to look at all these squares, okay? And make them into one big square. I'm going to get out of the way, okay? So what you see on the screen are 21 different squares, okay? They are squares, and they all have a different size. Or in scheduling, you know that class has to start at a particular point in time, okay? So it's very useful in many applications, okay? So what I want to illustrate is that we've a really nice example. In time tabling problems where you know that a class has to assigned to something, a professor has to be assigned to particular classes and so on. So instead of choosing the variable and then assigning the value, we want to look at the problem in a completely different fashion, right? We want to look at the value, and then choose a variable to which to assign the value, that value, okay? So take a value and then we take the variables to which we want to assign that value, okay? Now you're going to say, this is crazy, right? So this makes absolutely no sense, okay? But in practice they are a lot of applications where you know that a particular value has to be assigned, okay? This is typically happens in scheduling, this also happens. So what we're going to do is something very different, which is called value/variable labeling. Most people are going to do variable value labeling, and at some point you know, it's boring. So we're going to try with value variable you know, labeling. But I'm touching upon a number of topics that are interesting, okay. And once again you know, this is just introduction okay, so there are a lot more to this area, it's a very active research area. Okay, so trying to see various techniques for doing search. So, we're going to see a lot of problems on squares, magic squares, perfect squares. ![]() Okay, so last lecture on constraint programming. ![]() It covers constraint programming, local search, and mixed-integer programming from their foundations to their applications for complex practical problems in areas such as scheduling, vehicle routing, supply-chain optimization, and resource allocation. This class is an introduction to discrete optimization and exposes students to some of the most fundamental concepts and algorithms in the field. It organizes kidney exchanges and cancer treatments and helps scientists understand the fundamental fabric of life, control complex chemical reactions, and design drugs that may benefit billions of individuals. Optimization clears the day-ahead and real-time markets to deliver electricity to millions of people. It schedules planes and their crews, coordinates the production of steel, and organizes the transportation of iron ore from the mines to the ports. Optimization technology is ubiquitous in our society. class VariableExprAST : public ExprAST static std :: string IdentifierStr // Filled in if tok_identifier static double NumVal // Filled in if tok_number /// gettok - Return the next token from standard input.Tired of solving Sudokus by hand? This class teaches you how to solve complex search problems with discrete optimization concepts and algorithms, including constraint programming, local search, and mixed-integer programming. / VariableExprAST - Expression class for referencing a variable, like "a".
