Abstract

Compiling graphical models has recently been triggered much research. First investigations were established in the probabilistic framework. This paper studies compilation-based inference in min-based possibilistic networks. We first take advantage of the idempotency property of the min operator to enhance an existing compilation-based inference method in the possibilistic framework. Then, we propose a new CNF encoding which fits well with the particular case of binary networks.
