HE Qiang-jun, ZHAO Xiang-fu, OUYANG Dan-tong, et al. Performance Analysis and Comparison of Algorithms for Generating Minimal Hitting Sets[J]. Acta Electronica Sinica, 2019, 47(5): 1101-1110.
Model-based diagnosis is an important branch of research in the field of artificial intelligence.The efficiency for generating all minimal hitting sets
i.e.
candidate diagnoses
considerably affects the final diagnostic process.This paper focuses on the current major algorithms for computing minimal hitting sets.First
the basic ideas of algorithms were briefly introduced.Then
the similarities and differences
and complexity of them were compared by simple algorithm description and examples.An integrated experimental platform was implemented for testing and comparing their time efficiency
which provides an important reference for the actual selection of an appropriate algorithm in practice.
