使用 SAT 求解器 (Python) 查找特定区域内的所有自由多联骨牌组合

Finding all the combinations of free polyominoes within a specific area with a SAT-solver (Python)

我是 SAT 求解器领域的新手,需要有关以下问题的一些指导。

考虑到:

❶ 我在一个 4*4 的网格中选择了 14 个相邻的单元格

❷ 我有 5 polyominoes (A, B, C, D, E) 尺码 4, 2, 5, 2 和 1

❸ 这些多联骨牌是自由的,即它们的形状不固定,可以形成不同的图案

我如何使用 SAT 求解器计算所选区域(灰色单元格)内这 5 个自由多联骨牌的所有可能组合?

借用@spinkus 富有洞察力的回答和 OR-tools 文档,我可以制作以下示例代码(在 Jupyter Notebook 中运行):

cdict = dict(zip(labels, colors)) #Color dictionary for plotting

inactiveCells = (0, 1) #Indices of disabled cells (in 1D)
activeCells = set(np.arange(W*H)).difference(inactiveCells) #Cells where polyominoes can be fitted
ranges = [(next(g), list(g)[-1]) for g in mit.consecutive_groups(activeCells)] #All intervals in the stack of active cells

问题是我硬编码了 5 个 unique/fixed 多联骨牌,我不知道 如何定义约束,以便考虑到每个多联骨牌的每个可能模式(前提是可以)。

对于每个 polyonomino 和每个可能的左上角单元格,您都有一个布尔变量,用于指示此单元格是否是封闭矩形的左上角部分。

对于每个单元格和每个 polyomino,您都有一个布尔变量,用于指示该单元格是否被该 polyomino 占用。

现在,对于每个单元格和每个 polyomino,你有一系列的含义:选择左上角的单元格意味着每个单元格实际上都被这个 polyomino 占用。

然后是约束条件: 对于每个单元格,最多有一个多联骨牌占据它 对于每个 polyomino,它的左上角恰好有一个单元格。

这是一道纯布尔题。

编辑: 我在原始答案中漏掉了 "free" 这个词,并使用 OR-Tools 给出了固定多联骨牌的答案。添加了一个部分来回答以包含免费多联骨牌的解决方案 - 结果证明 AFAICT 很难在使用 OR-Tools 的约束编程中精确表达。

使用 OR-TOOLS 修复的多联骨牌:

是的,你可以用 constraint programming in OR-Tools. OR-Tools knows nothing about 2D grid geometry so you have to encode the geometry of each shape you have in terms of positional constraints. I.e. a shape is a collection of blocks / cells that must have a certain relationship to each other, must be within the bounds of the grid and must not overlap. Once you have your constraint model you just ask the CP-SAT Solver 解决它,在你的情况下,所有可能的解决方案。

这是一个非常简单的概念证明,在 4x4 网格上有两个矩形(您可能还想添加某种解释器代码以从形状描述到一组 OR-Tools 变量和约束在更大规模的问题中,因为手动输入约束有点乏味)。

from ortools.sat.python import cp_model

(W, H) = (3, 3) # Width and height of our grid.
(X, Y) = (0, 1) # Convenience constants.


def main():
  model = cp_model.CpModel()
  # Create an Int var for each block of each shape constrained to be within width and height of grid.
  shapes = [
    [
      [ model.NewIntVar(0, W, 's1b1_x'), model.NewIntVar(0, H, 's1b1_y') ],
      [ model.NewIntVar(0, W, 's1b2_x'), model.NewIntVar(0, H, 's1b2_y') ],

  # Define the shapes by constraining the blocks relative to each other.

如果我们将单元格网格视为图形,则问题可以重新解释为 找到网格单元格的 k 分区,其中每个分区都有特定的大小,另外每个分区是 connected component. I.e. AFAICT there is no difference between a connected component and a polyomino 并且此答案的其余部分做出了该假设。

发现所有可能 "k-partitions of the cells of the grid where each partition has a specific size" 在 OR-Tools 约束规划中表达起来非常简单。但是 connectedness 部分是 hard AFAICT(我尝试了很长时间但失败了......)。我认为 OR-Tools 约束编程不是正确的方法。我注意到网络优化库的 OR-Tools C++ 参考在 connected components 上有一些内容可能值得一看,但我不熟悉它。另一方面,Python 中的朴素递归搜索解决方案非常可行。

这是一个 "by hand" 天真的解决方案。它非常慢,但对于您的 4x4 情况来说可以忍受。地址用于标识网格中的每个单元格。 (另请注意,wiki page 暗示像这种算法是一种天真的解决方案,看起来它建议一些更有效的解决类似的 polyomino 问题)。
