Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Dynamic Programming is a fundamental tool for many optimization problems. However, in practical situations, in addition to textbook style settings, problems contain their own specific constraints. In most of such cases, unfortunately we cannot apply conventional dynamic programming-based techniques due to the additional constraint. In this talk, I briefly introduce our recent studies on combinatorial optimizations by giving an example of 0-1 Knapsack Problem. The basic idea of our approach is that we represent constraints by Zero-suppressed Binary Decision Diagram (ZDD) and use it as a `guide’ of the dynamic programming paths.
