Sifting is an effective heuristic technique which applies adjacent variable interchanges to find a good variable ordering to reduce the size of a BDD or MDD. Linear sifting is an extension of BDD sifting where XOR operations involving adjacent variable pairs augment adjacent variable interchange leading to further reduction in the node count. In this paper, we consider the extension of this approach to MDDs. In particular, we show that the XOR operation of linear sifting can be extended to a variety of operations. We term the resulting approach augmented sifting. Experimental results are presented showing sifting and augmented sifting can be quite effective in reducing the size of MDDs for certain types of functions.","PeriodicalId":434515,"journal":{"name":"33rd International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic, 2003.

Since UCHT unifies sixty-four different complex Hadamard transformation, it can provide a unified complex Hadamard spectral transform decision diagram.

Moreover a lot of games have a parameter, like board-size that allows to generate differently sized instances of the same problem. All this makes them perfectly suitable for benchmarking in the multi-valued domain. So far the lack of benchmarks in this area often was compensated by transferring problems from binary to multi-valued, but for several application domains this is not adequate. This paper focuses on three games, that we consider suitable for benchmarking. We show the differences in complexity of the games and compare two coding schemes for one of them. All three problems are modeled by symbolic techniques, namely decision diagrams, leading to a complete representation of the solution space. This representation finds several applications, e.g. in objectively analyzing the efficiency of different heuristics on a solution space or to speed up learning algorithms.","PeriodicalId":434515,"journal":{"name":"33rd International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic, 2003.
